How to donate

How to donate

You can drop off goods at our donation bay at the side gate to the Shop from 10:30am to 11:30am Monday to Saturday.

Please note this is a maximum of four bags or boxes currently as we cope with the demand. If you would like to drop off more than the current maximum number of bags, then please ring the shop on 01392 271652 in advance to organise a suitable date and time.

Please don’t leave items outside the Shop when we’re closed.

Unfortunately we cannot routinely offer a collection service. Please get in touch if you have an item or items that you are unable to bring in yourself. Call us on 01392 271652 for details.

As well as sales in the Shop, we can raise vital funds by selling old clothes and shoes for recycling. If you have clean clothing that you thought was too worn out for us to sell, just label the bag as rag.

Please Gift Aid your donated items if you can. As a UK taxpayer you can help us claim an extra 25 pence from Her Majesty’s Revenue & Customs for every £1 you help to raise. Simply sign up for Gift Aid when you take your items to our Shop. Please ask a member of our team for details when you arrive.
