By The Refugee Women's Centre | Team
All our activities in the field are made possible thanks to the mobility of the teams.
Every morning, the team present daily on the ground meets at our sorting and storage warehouse where the afternoon activities are prepared.
Having vehicles and being mobile allow us to carry out our activities and to be able to physically support the people we support.
In Calais, we leave the warehouse and go to different places and streets to meet women and families. We also work with our partners and their day care, having vehicles also allows us to provide physical support to people and to provide material support in different places in the city.
In Grande-Synthe, from the Calais warehouse, we go directly to the camp where people live with precarious living conditions. In our van is the hygiene products that we distribute but also the clothes, they also allow us to bring sleeping equipment to allow people to shelter.
We are having problems in terms of mobility: our van is broken down and has been vandalized. At the moment we have not been able to get such a large and practical vehicle and we are doing with our other two vehicles. But, thanks to all the people who support us and whom we thank once again, we were able to buy a vehicle to allow us to continue our activities.
