At Sheltersuit UK, our mission is simple: protect people sleeping rough from rain, wind and cold. But a Shelterbag does more than get someone through one bad night. Warmth and proper sleep are what let a person's body start to recover — and that recovery is often the first step back towards being able to think clearly, and to talk to the people trying to help.

​

With the growing number of people experiencing rough sleeping across the UK, we’ve been working closely with Spiro and Moss Inc to create "Event Graphics for Good".

​

We’re excited to announce that we now repurpose graphics from the events and print industry into Shelterbags – giving used materials a second life and providing shelter and safety to those who need it most.

​

If you have black back canvas graphics -- getting involved couldn’t be simpler. Check out the guidelines below to see how you can take part.

​

Together, we can turn waste into shelter.
