What's Needed
They really need these items:
* Batteries

* Cots
* Flashlights
* Lanterns
* Pillowcases & pillows
* Buckets with lids
* Collapsible water containers
These things will give comfort, safety, and basic stuff to people who had to leave their homes or were badly affected.
Why This Matters
Lots of families in Jamaica are dealing with loss and don't have enough basic supplies. When bad things like this happen, things like clean water and a safe place to stay are super important.
This shows what can happen when people come together. Wolverhampton has strong ties to the Caribbean, with many locals having Jamaican roots. Helping out isn't just kind; it's a way for the community to stand by their friends and family overseas.
The Heritage Centre is doing its part to help the community and preserve culture. By being a collection point, they're turning good intentions into real help for those who need it.
How You Can Help
Every bit helps! Whether it's a flashlight, some bedding, or a water container, please give what you can. Together, Wolverhampton can really make a difference in Jamaica's recovery.
If you want to know more or volunteer, drop by The Heritage Centre in Whitmore Reans during the drop-off times.
