The BIG WINTER COAT Campaign 2025
St Helens is piloting a Pick-A-Coat Event this November to assist families and individuals who might want to give a winter coat a new home. The campaign encourages community members to donate clean, gently worn winter coats of all sizes and styles, along with hats, scarves, and gloves.
Donations can be dropped off between October 20th and October 31st at the following locations:
- YMCA – Beacon Building, College Street, St Helens (WA10 1TF)
- Parish Church St Helens, Church Square, Town Centre (WA10 1HP)
These donated items will be sorted and made available at several Pick-A-Coat Days, where anyone in the St Helens community can come and choose a coat freely and without referral. The goal is to share the warmth. The information regarding ‘Pick a Coat’ sessions will be shared at a later date by Halton & St Helens Voluntary and Community Action
