Selfless teenage boy collects crisps packets to make sleeping bags for the homeless | SWNS

A selfless teenager has spent his lockdown collecting hundreds of empty crisps packets - in order to make SLEEPING BAGS for the homeless.

Army cadet Rhyder Cameron-Wickes, 16, has been keeping himself busy by learning how to fuse together hundreds of empty crisps packets in order to create a warm, well-insulated sleeping bag.

Each sleeping bag - or bivvy bag, designed to slip over the top of a regular sleeping bag to provide an extra layer of warmth - requires 150 empty crisps packets, making it quite a time-consuming process.
