Every Thursday, from 2pm until 5pm, we host the crisp packet project in our Southbank hub. Since starting this project, it has helped supply homeless people in our community with insulated sleeping bags, blankets, pillows and many more items.
You will be creating sleeping bags, blankets and other items to help keep the homeless and struggling individuals warm. These items are given out at our free market stalls to anyone who requests one.
This process involves taking empty crisp packets, cleaning them, overlapping the foil with other crisp packets and fusing them together using an iron and a sheet of special paper. This is done repeatedly until you end up with the finished product.
