As of Thursday 19 January, the Wall of Kindness is back in central Norrköping and Linköping. You can come here and hang up your jacket, hat, mittens or other clothing item that feels redundant at home in the closet.
The wall can be seen as a symbol that we all need to extend a hand to those who need help.
And when it's a bit chilly and cold outside, people need an opportunity to pick up a warm piece of clothing here, says director Sanna Detlefsen from Östergötland's City Mission.
High pressure on the City Mission
There are many who are struggling financially right now with inflation and higher interest rates, and the City Mission has seen that the basic need for food and clothing has increased by 20 percent in recent months.
We have enormous pressure on the City Mission and there are people who sometimes have work and work - but can't make it work anyway, says Sanna Detlefsen.
