Small electricals like kettles, toasters and microwaves.

Please note:

• We are unable to accept large items such as furniture or appliances.
• Bedsheets and pillows should be in good clean condition.
• If you have a lot to donate, it may be better to call in advance to make sure we are ready to receive your items.
• We must regrettably turn down certain items if we have too many at the moment. This sometimes happens with clothing and duvets. You may wish to call in advance to enqire.

Our Food Bank Needs Pantry Staples
