Bidding wars rage as rents rise
UK rents rose to a new record this month, reaching a nationwide average of £1,091 against a backdrop of increasing demand, falling supply – and rising costs.
Property industry charity Agents Giving is working with homelessness charity Only A Pavement Away to collect warm clothing and hygiene products for local homeless shelters as part of National Winter Warmth Week. Since it began in 2019, the Winter Warmth campaign has resulted in around £250,000 worth of items being donated.
With the cost of living crisis biting this winter, homeless shelters, food banks and other charities are expecting record demand. Why not see if anyone at your office has any unwanted winter coats, jumpers, gloves or scarves?
If your office takes part, or if you want some help finding your nearest donation drop-off point, you can let Agents Giving know at their website. You can also send in photos of your haul and they’ll help promote your donation!
