Can you spare one hour on Saturday December 9, between 11am and 2pm to help wrap gifts for children in direct provision?

*If you’d like to bring extra presents to wrap, you’ll find buying suggestions just here on the left. This is not required…you can come just to help wrap.

There are more than 4,000 children living in direct provision or emergency accommodation in Ireland, often in cramped conditions. With whole families often sharing a room, there's little space to play or do homework, and no money for treats. ADPI is a voluntary organisation that supports people in direct provision as well as lobbying the government to end the system. Every year they fundraise to buy Christmas presents for children.
