"These hygiene packs give our clients just that extra protection and they greatly appreciate the donations."
The hygiene packs that are being donated features hand sanitiser, disinfectant gel and wipes, surface sanitiser and multipurpose cleaner.
"The insensitive to donate hygiene items started during the start of the pandemic, when Reckitt started donating hand sanitiser," she said.
