Community Clothes Rack

Do you have any good-quality second-hand clothes that your family has grown out of?

We are looking for donations to help keep our Community Clothes Rack stocked for families who may need a little extra support.

If you have clean, gently used clothing that is still in good condition, we would love for you to donate it to The Willows Children’s Centre.

Thank you for supporting our community!
