Who we are....
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. As a group from Plymouth, we started up collections and donation points across the region and now we send 40ft containers and pallets of aid to Greece and France. In Europe we partner with and send aid on a regular basis to Mobile Refugee Support (Dunkirk and Calais), Attika Human Support (Lesvos Greece). We have shipped 8 containers with 4 of those going to our partners in Greece Attika Human Support.
We work with other groups across Devon and Cornwall to continually collect aid to help those who are now living in refugee camps to rebuild their lives. We work closely with a number of other grass root aid groups across the South West including One and All Aid Wadebridge Cornish Refugee Aid Project, Bude Refugee Support Group, Launceston Refugee Support, Exeter City of Sanctuary Ottery Refugee Response Group and Beyond Borders Totnes to collect aid and get it to where it is needed.
Our main ethos and premise is to support those who have been limited by social and economic status, ill health, circumstance, conflict or displacement. The overall aim of OHOB is to provide essential items and assistance such as food, clothing, toiletries, locally for those in need and globally via humanitarian aid relief.
Through fundraising, grants, community collections and donations points across the South West OHOB receives, collects and sends containers and pallets of humanitarian aid to Greece and vans of aid to France. We give to local women’s projects, homeless charities and individuals in need. We take requests for aid and do our best to provide support where we can.
