Shelterbox Collections around London in June

We are fortunate to have been awarded 8 different underground stations to collect at during Big ShelterBox Week (June 9th – 16th); one for each day! It’s a great opportunity to collect much needed funds and do some awareness raising. The 8 stations are:

Tooting Broadway Sat 9th Northern
Kew Gardens Sun 10th District / Overground
Leicester Square Mon 11th Piccadilly / Northern
Monument Tues 12th Circle / District
South Harrow Wed 13th Piccadilly
Marble Arch Thurs 14th Central
Hounslow Central Fri 15th Piccadilly
Clapham Common Sat 16th Northern

We can collect all day (06.30 – 22.00) but obviously aren’t expecting to have volunteers cover the entire day! The main times will be morning rush hour: 07.00 – 10.00 and evening rush hour: 16.00 – 19.00. But as many hours as we can get covered would be great. We’re looking for volunteers to collect in 2 hour stints and the max number of collectors at one time is 2 (except Leicester Square which can have 4 collectors).

Abi, James and I will act as your point of contact – we won’t be there during the day but will go along to deliver new buckets, will be on the end of the phone to answer any questions and will also collect the money at the end of the day.

If you feel you would like to help with this please respond to this email with dates and times you are able to collect. I will then organise a rota and how to get collection buckets and t-shirts to you and will provide all necessary information as well as TFL guidelines for collections.
