To help raise money for the British Heart Foundation (BHF), each year Oxford Brookes takes part in the charity’s Pack for Good campaign.
Last year Brookes donated 2022 bags raising over £28,000 and this year we hope to do even better.You can donate a range of items including clothes, shoes and books at the permanent BHF bins found at the following locations:
- Harcourt Hill (outside the main reception by the bus stop)
- Wheatley (between blocks A and M)
- Headington (Clerici car park)
- Clive Booth Student Village
- Cheney Student Village
- Warneford Hall
- Crescent Hall
- Paul Kent Hall
- Westminster Hall
How does it help?
BHF estimates that each donated bag raises £14 in donations. Your donations make a difference by helping to support a range of local services. For example:- 10 bags could fund a full day’s BHF heart nursing care
- 100 bags could help find a cure by funding a young scientist for seven days
- 1000 bags could help 40 heart patients to gain independence.
