Yes, it does get cold in Bali, mainly in the mountains where the people are very poor. Smudge UK & the charity he's works with take a particular interest in these poverty stricken villages & he has posted requests before for warm clothing before.
Any and all clothing is appreciated.
Do a search here for Smudge UK. He will collect from your hotel and there are various places around Kuta/Legian which will accept & hold donations for him. If you get the chance to meet him at S & S one evening you will be humbled by this wonderful man & the tireless efforts he & his friends make to help those desperately in need of help.
