The Giving Tree

💚 WE NEED YOUR HELP 💚

At the moment we are particularly short of:

📚 Children's books
🎲 Games
🧸 Toys
👜 Handbags
🛋️ Cushions
🛏️ Bedding (duvet covers and sheets)
🧺 Towels

We kindly ask that all items are clean, complete and in good condition.

When you donate to The Giving Tree, you're doing much more than passing on unwanted items.

This year, the small community grants funded from shop profits have helped local groups by providing items including tents, goal posts and planters for schools and youth organisations.

Shop profits also help support the work of Duncan Hospital Charitable Trust in India. With your support we have raised enough money to train 2 nurses and helped to provide a basic education and a daily meal for 50 street children living in the vicinity of the hospital.

Your donations make a BIG impact in the local community and beyond.

If you have any of the items listed above, please consider donating them, and any other items from the list at the top of the page, to the The Giving Tree. Every donation helps us continue supporting good causes both locally and internationally.

Thank you for your continued support. 💚
