Gifts including toiletries, toys and clothing have poured in for charitable organisations in recent days as reported figures suggest almost 2,000 Afghan refugees have already arrived in the United Kingdom following the fall of Kabul. Charities in Birmingham and Scarborough have shared pictures of thousands of gifts that were provided by generous locals wanting to aid those fleeing persecution in Afghanistan. The Bushey United Synagogue in Hertfordshire also received supplies for newly arrived Afghan families to the area after a Facebook request was met with 'a tremendous act of love' from the local community.

Rooms in Kent, West Yorkshire, Hertfordshire, Warwickshire and more have been prepared as refugees continue to fly into airports including Birmingham and RAF Brize Norton in Oxfordshire.
