Laura, Team leader, Elim Housing

My name is Laura and I am the team leader of a young parents supporting homelessness service based in Bristol.

Operation Community Hamper have been supporting our young families for at least the last two years.  Charlotte is like an angel in disguise, her empathy towards others with no judgements is incomparable.

Operation Community Hamper has provided lots of our families with furniture to help them move into independent accommodation, if it wasn’t for this generosity many of them would be sleeping on floors. Charlotte’s team delivers the furniture all over Bath and Bristol and all done with a smile on their face.  

The garden or as it is now known Charlotte’s yard has been given a makeover, resident cleaned and Operation Community Hamper provided new play equipment which has been a massive hit by the children and their parents.

Christmas was just amazing Operation Community Hamper supplied, the residents with luxury hampers and gifts, some of these young families would not have received anything if it wasn’t for this amazing charity.  The charity also supports other projects including providing gifts and hampers to 55 bed projects.

Prior to learning about Operation Community Hamper, I would support good causes however the thing I absolutely love about this charity is you can see the difference it is making to the local community; it is tangible!

Charlotte has an amazing team that works alongside her and all those people deserve to be recognized for the love and kindness they show strangers.
