  • Decent quality instant coffee (Caffeinated please)

  • Squash

  • Spreads: Peanut butter, Marmite, jams and marmalades

  • Baked beans

  • Single-serve packets that people can make with boiling water. For example; pasta & sauce, noodles, cup-a-soup

  • Individual juice cartons

  • Wrapped bars/biscuits, such as Kit Kats

  • Reusable bottles/flasks

  • Socks

  • Gloves

  • Hats

  • Razors

  • Conditioner (we have enough shampoo)

Vouchers for shops like Argos or multi-store gift cards are always welcome to help people when they move into a home.

If you prefer to donate financially, you can do so via our JustGiving page.

Thank you for your support.
