By making a donation we can continue to provide support to those who are in need

We are lucky to have generous supporters who donate food, clothing and household goods.

Over the past year we have seen an increase in support needed and have struggled to meet the demand. As a result we need to purchase extra food and resources to meet the demand.

Food bags required to support our service users equate to ~£30,000 each year.

To continue with our support, we need donations to enable us to keep providing food and support. 

We thank you for all donations, with your support we can continue to help those in need.

Don’t forget to check the ‘Gift aid’ Box for an extra 25% added to your donation – as a UK Tax payer.
How it works

For the donor:  You donate your money to a charity as usual. The charity can then claim an additional 25% back from the government, making your £1 donation worth £1.25 to them. You don’t pay any extra money.

For the charity: The charity receives your original donation plus the extra 25% in tax relief from the government, increasing the value of the donation without any extra cost to you.

For the tax reclaim: The charity must have a Gift Aid declaration from you, and you must have paid enough UK tax on your income or capital gains in the same tax year to cover the amount the charity reclaims.
