Donate gifts in kind

Donations of food, clothes and other items can make a real difference in our projects

While we do accept donations such as food, clothes and other items, we do have a few rules when dealing with these as health and safety is a big concern in our projects.

What we can accept:

• Clean clothes
• Full, sealed packets of food within their sell by date
• Working electrical items

Unfortunately we do not have the capacity to collect and store items. These should be dropped off directly at one of our projects.  If you think you have items we could use, please contact the Donor Relations team at [email protected] or 020 8600 3000.

What we are unable to accept:

• Used beds and bedding (new blankets must be fire retardant to crib factor 5)
• Non fire retardant furniture
• Used/secondhand fridges and freezers
• TVs and other electrical items in need of repair

Many of our corporate supporters donate food and clothing; these can be from collections or surplus stock that is no longer required. If your company would like to donate items please contact our corporate team on 020 8762 5537.
