Halloween Zumba Class Raising Socks for The Whitechapel Centre!

On Wednesday 31st October the Whitechapel's very own receptionist, administrator and fitness guru, Sandy Clarke, is running her weekly zumba class with a special purpose, socks!

She is asking that everyone who comes to the class brings with them at least one pair of  new, men's or ladies socks.

As the winter month's draw nearer we start to collect as many warm items of clothing as possible for those in need, particularly socks, hats, gloves and scarves.

When we sit in our warm homes during those cold winter months I am sure it is difficult to imagine how it must feel for those who are living on the streets, with no luxury of fires, central heating, or homes.

I am collecting for The Whitechapel Centre. Please bring a pair of socks: Men’s or ladies’ (not children’s) and preferably new.  (For more info on the charity: www.whitechapelcentre.co.uk or go to my face book group page – Sandy Clarke Zumba/Group Training)

Don’t forget your Halloween fancy dress!

Two years ago we suffered from a particularly cold winter season, a life threatening time for those who live on the streets, and for those who struggle with maintaining the cost of heating.

With this in mind preparation is key in providing the right form of aid, and collecting socks so that those who need them might have warm, clean, dry feet is just the start.

Well done Sandy for thinking ahead, lets hope she has a full class on Halloween this year, I am sure there will be many photos to follow!
