Giving us things
We are continually amazed and delighted at the generosity people show in giving us food and other items to help in our support of the homeless. However, we also get embarrassed when people give us things for which we have no storage space or which can be better used by other charities. We would therefore ask that, before giving us anything, you check this page to find out our current needs.
Donated items should be delivered to our Day Centre. Please telephone us in advance on 01245 350792 so that we can arrange for people to be on hand to receive the items you are bringing and deal with them quickly. The Day Centre address can be found here and the location is shown on this map.

Because of the onset of colder weather we particularly need men's beanie hats, scarves and gloves. (Beanie hats are those woollen hats people can pull down over their ears.) We are also in need of boxer shorts.
