People are leaving out hats and gloves to help the homeless stay warm

People have been leaving hats, gloves, and scarves out for the homeless to help them stay warm during the current snap of cold weather sweeping Britain.

The annual campaign involves people leaving items of clothing tied to posts and railings with a note attached. It's part of a movement called "Keep Bristol Warm", which was started by Gavyn Emery in summer 2015 and is run by volunteers from the local community.
