Winter Coats Drive - Giveaway Dates 2025

💙 Warm Coats, Warm Hearts 💙

Do you need a little extra warmth this winter? EC Students' Association is here to help. 

We’re running our Winter Coat Drive, offering free coats, hats, and scarves for students who need them. Everything has been kindly donated by staff and students from across the College as well as some brand new items from the wider college community, and it’s all free for you to take. 

 we hope to smash that this year, with the help of our wonderfully kind suppliers, Russums Catering clothing, and Dencowear 

💙 Stay warm, stay cosy, and don’t be shy – this campaign is for you 💙

 

🚨UPDATE! 🚨

We have officially more than doubled last year's distribution record, with more than 390 items distributed in just a few days across the campuses. Loads more to come! 

The Edinburgh College community 

is sharing the love (and warm coats) ❤️‍🔥


 

We Got You - A Message from Your VP Welfare, Sukinder

 

Sukinder Landa, Vice President WelfareHi everyone,

As the weather gets colder, I want to make sure no one at Edinburgh College has to face winter without something warm to wear.

As part of our Warm Coats, Warm Hearts initiative, we’ll have women’s, men’s, and children’s coats, as well as hats and scarves, available for anyone who needs them. Everything will be on a rail outside our offices – please feel completely welcome to come by and take what you need.

 

 Next Giveaway Dates:
🧥 Monday 8th December – Sighthill Campus 
🧤 Tuesday 9th December – Granton Campus
🧣 Wednesday 10th December – Milton Road Campus

 

We will continue to distribute until we have shared everything that has been donated. 

We would like to pay a special thanks to the angels that have donated this clothing from the wider Edinburgh College community - staff, students, and clothing suppliers Russums Catering Clothing, and Dencowear. Your kindness is appreciated 🙏

Let’s look out for each other and stay cosy this winter ❄️
