A group of Glaswegians has arrived at a migrant camp in France

:00:00.:00:10.

to offer medical help, warm clothing and blankets.

:00:11.:00:13.

The volunteers, on their second trip to Calais, say they've been

:00:14.:00:16.

overwhelmed by the generosity of the Scottish public.

:00:17.:00:19.

Boxes bound for migrants in Calais. Having been before, these volunteers

:00:20.:00:32.

know what kind of supplies are needed, especially now the weather

:00:33.:00:36.

has turned wintry. The conditions of the people there, absolutely bad.

:00:37.:00:46.

People do not have shoes, blankets. They get three, four people covered

:00:47.:00:51.

by bankers. Doctors are travelling on the trip as well, ready to treat

:00:52.:00:56.

migrants for all kinds of injuries as well as serious medical

:00:57.:01:02.

conditions. For people with cardiovascular diseases, problems

:01:03.:01:05.

with the heart, blood pressure tablets, but mostly trying to help

:01:06.:01:09.

with the basics and lots of antibiotics to combat the weather

:01:10.:01:14.

because of the snow. Conditions are cramped and basic. The volunteers

:01:15.:01:18.

say people are desperate for help. It is very muddy and wet. People

:01:19.:01:24.

need blankets and warm clothes, jackets, that kind of thing. When we

:01:25.:01:28.

went the last time we didn't have enough of those things. We had some

:01:29.:01:33.

that was donated very kindly by the Scottish people and again, we want

:01:34.:01:38.

to say thank you so much to them. Compared to their last visit,

:01:39.:01:40.

volunteers say the situation in what is known as the jungle seems to have

:01:41.:01:45.

worsened further, prompting plans for more aid trips like this one

:01:46.:01:49.

family matters. After his match he headed straight to hospital

:03:02.:03:04.

accompanied by his mother to check on the condition of his

rain arrives from the South West. Moving northwards this evening and

overnight. But staying mild. There is the rain moving up to cover most

parts of the mainland, turning lighter in nature. It is a mild

night, a second band of rain arriving around 5 in the morning,

:04:32.:04:37.

temperatures of 8 sources for money. Tomorrow, strong winds at times. The

:04:44.:04:48.

conditions, particularly across the Southern uplands and the West Coast.

:04:49.:04:53.

But temperatures of 13 or 14. Hopefully some holes in the cloud
