Roots is a registered association near Dunkirk, Northern France. Since 2017 it has been supporting refugees - evolving and growing to meet the needs on site. Presently we offer the Community Hub ( WiFi, charge, games , information and tv ), showers on site - made from recycled IBC’s - 4 days a week we provide gazebos and boilers to ensure hot showers are available, waste management and we support other organizations with food distribution once a week. We are a completely volunteer led org only.
As the cost of gas bottles, electricity etc has all gone up just as the Hot Shower service was not just relaunched for 2026 but also offering men and women/children showers simultaneously it is time to use the money from Teaming to assist with these costs. The new system means we do get through a lot more gas to heat the showers, more towels and as such a lot more washing ! Coupled with extra toiletries ( luckily we have been saving these up over the last few months to offset the increased need) Roots needs the funds now . Thanks to everyone's support in donating /sending their monthly contributions.

Thank you to everyone who have joined Roots’ teaming
We now have 26 of you - this is just over half the cost of a gas bottle :)
We will be using more of them as the weather turns, we have a gas heater and plan to buy another for the hot shower project, Your support helps us to plan for winter. If you could please share our project, our purpose and the teaming link we would be very grateful
