Holiday at Home

Holiday at Home

Helping to keep communities safe, clean and entertained this summer

Here at In Kind Direct, we know this is a Summer like no other. Plans are cancelled, more people are struggling than ever before and the demand we're experiencing from our charity partners has significantly increased. In our current survey of our charity partners, we're hearing that three-quarters plan to focus on keeping people clean, safe and well and 60% are addressing the mental health and well-being issues arising from the current crisis. During UK lockdown, two-thirds of respondents have been delivering essential care packages to those that really need them, including families. With children having been out of school for so long, finding things to keep them entertained is a big concern. So we're here to help. Running until Sunday 16th August, our campaign 'Holiday at Home', aims to help everyone keep safe, clean and entertained this Summer. With huge thanks to the generosity of Flying Tiger Copenhagen and many other donors, we're providing a new mix of products to bring some sunshine to our communities.

New products

Our catalogue site for our charity partners is bursting with new Summer themed products including outdoor toys, games to entertain children, snacks and essential toiletries. We'll be adding more Summer products throughout the campaign so be sure to check back. If your charitable organisation isn’t registered with us yet, join for free today. Here are some of our current favourites, as recommended the In Kind Direct team and their conversations with our charity partners –

Flying Tiger Lolly Mould

"These moulds are brilliant for creating your own lollies for children. Creating your own is a brilliant way for families to save money and reduce waste" - David

Toni & Guy Shampoo

"This shampoo smells of Summer. Again, another popular essential product for helping people keeping clean" - Emily

 

Sanex Shower Gel

"Shower gels are one of our most popular products in helping charities, so people can keep clean, especially during the warm Summer months" - Linda

Listening to our charity partners

"We will continue with giving essentials packs out so we need to continue to source these toiletries products. Also with children still off school our kids summer programmes will not happen so we need to source a lot more arts crafts and basic paper supplies etc."
- OASIS Community Centre and Gardens (Worksop)
"They [In Kind Direct] have absolutely changed what we can offer to families and it has made the difference between wanting to help and being able to help."
- Langport and Huish Episcopi Youth Group
