Choose Love started back in 2015 when a group of friends began collecting donations for refugees in Calais. We began as a simple hashtag, asking people to donate, and now, we are a global organisation supporting refugees and displaced people all over the world.

Together with the incredible people who have joined the choose love movement, we’ve supported over 5 million people worldwide, across more than 30 countries. We respond to emergencies providing search and rescue, emergency medical care and vital supplies and we support folks with what they need to rebuild their lives, from mental health care to education.

We do all this by collaborating with a network of incredible local, community and refugee-led organisations. 

Find out more about our amazing grassroots partners and their work here, and follow us on @chooselove to hear more updates. 

As temperatures drop to freezing, people living in refugee camps need support and winter supplies more than ever. Everything you buy in the Choose Love Shop will help refugees and displaced communities this winter. Since 2016 shoppers have bought a total of more than £13 million items at the Choose Love Shop in all of its forms, and we have ensured that each and every purchase has got to those who most need it. 

Thank you so much for your generosity!
