Thousands of people across Hampshire, Dorset and the Isle of Wight are affected by hygiene poverty, with the increased cost of living meaning some families are going without simple necessities like soap, toothpaste and personal care products. Throughout January, Â鶹Éç Radio Solent is helping collect donated toiletries and cleaning products, for community schemes and charities to distribute to those who need them. Â鶹Éç Radio Solent's Connor Moseley has been speaking to Helen Morton from Hive Portsmouth about hygiene poverty. You can donate unopened items to the Â鶹Éç Radio Solent Soapbox Appeal at drop off locations across Hampshire, Dorset and the Isle of Wight, there's a full list on the Â鶹Éç Radio Solent Make a Difference page.
