Amount of donations and what we can and cannot accept: We are so grateful for donations that help us raise money for our charity, however we can only accept a certain amount of donations, this is because we must wait 72 hours before opening any donated bags of items. Therefore, donations are limited to: A maximum of 2 bags per person/family, per day. (bag sizes should be equivalent to: 2 black bin bags, 4 small shop carrier bags or 2 bags for life.)

Please do not leave donations outside our shop: Doing so puts our volunteers, staff, customers and the public at risk. We have even had people leave rubbish and recycling outside our shop.This means we have to use our limited time and resources to dispose of these at a time when safety must come first. We appreciate donations so much, but it is so important to donate in a safe and kind way by following our simple donation rules.
