Afghan refugees clothes donation Leeds: Where can I donate clothes for Afghan refugees near me in Leeds?

Many community centres and businesses are opening their doors to accept donations of clothes, food and supplies for the Afghan refugees arriving in cities across the UK.

Earlier this week, the Taliban took over the city of Kabul and claimed victory in Afghanistan after almost 20 years of a US-led coalition leading the country.

This came after the US began withdrawing their forces on May 1 of this year, aiming to have all troops withdrawn from Afghanistan by the end of this month.

To support the refugees and British nationals arriving in the country after being evacuated from Afghanistan, many organisations are appealing for members of the public to donate items.
