We really appreciate the donation of food and other items from our local community. As we have limited storage, we are regularly produce a list of our most-needed items, please see below.
If possible please phone the office on 01962 862050 or complete the enquiry form below if you have items you would like to donate so that we can confirm we have space for the donation.
Our most-needed food and household items
Food:
- Fresh fruit and vegetables
- Fresh meat
- Frozen meat (mince, pork chops, chicken breasts/thighs, stewing beef)
Other items:
-
- Toilet roll
- Tissues
- Blankets
- New single bed sheets
- New single duvet sets
Our storage space is very limited and therefore we are unfortunately only able to accept our most-needed items. At the moment we do not have space for duvets, pillows, towels or clothing. In terms of bed sheets, we are only able to accept new single sheets and new single duvet sets, no double bedding please. We are also no longer able to accept cleaning products.
We also welcome the donation of supermarket vouchers which we can use to purchase fresh ingredients as and when we need them. Vouchers are also useful to give to residents when they are moving on to their own accommodation.
Sometimes we find we have too much of a particular food item. In this situation, to ensure no food is wasted we redistribute donations to other charities and community organisations in the City including Winchester Basics Bank and the Carroll Centre.
