Boxes Are the Ticket!

When St Cuthberts Care asked Roswood if we could provide corrugated boxes for the charity's Drive On bus project, we were only too pleased to be able to help.
Rosewood donated a dozen giant boxes that were just the ticket for the charity's mobile clothing distribution project. St Cuthberts Care has purchased a single-decker bus and converted the interior to accommodate clothing that will be now be stored in Rosewood’s boxes.
The bus will distribute the garments to people who are homeless, seeking refuge, disadvantaged or isolated within socially deprived areas across the North East of England.
Overall, the project aims to make a difference to the lives of disadvantaged individuals by providing essential clean clothing as well as practical support. Rosewood’s Operations Manager, George Mather, said, “I am delighted that Rosewood is able to assist a scheme that is committed to improving the quality of so many people’s lives.”
