OHOB Details
OHOB represents opportunities for all of us to grow as one kind, compassionate, welcoming and integrated community. OHOB was initially set up in October 2015 as a Facebook Group called Open Hearts Open Borders – Refugee Aid; this was in response to the current refugee crisis and the tragic media images across our screens. We have now developed into a community organisation which supports many people across the South West as well as in Europe – we are here to help provide essential items and support to those who through circumstance require help. In July 2016 we registered as a Charitable Not for Profit Company Limit by Guarantee - Company No: 10297393As a group of volunteers from across Devon and Cornwall, we collect essential aid items to fill containers and send pallets of aid to Europe. We now work closely with a number of other grass root aid groups across the South West. In Europe, we ship aid on a regular basis to Mobile Refugee Support (Dunkirk and Calais) and Attika Human Support (Lesvos Greece) we also ship to other projects on an ad hoc basis and when required. We welcome refugees and asylum seekers arriving or already living in the South West and across the United Kingdom by supporting and providing household and personal items for resettlement.As a grassroots organisation which has grown organically, we are entirely supported by local people and the community of Devon and Cornwall. This type of empowerment is the best way to build solid and lasting foundations of mutual understanding, integration and support to those less fortunate. OHOB is a focus for creating change through the kindness of a network of volunteers and supporters ranging from individuals and families to South West businesses, church groups, refugees, clubs and associations, charities and community groups. One of our main partners and supporters is QStore Business Centre in Saltash Cornwall PL12 6LX.
