We love to receive your donations. We have a wish list each week on our Facebook page and website so please take a look.
Sadly we cannot accept the following items due to health and safety regulations and lack of storage for larger items:
car seats, prams, buggies, highchairs, walkers, cots, travel cots
We would love the following please:
Moses Baskets (with or without stands), Moses basket sheets and blankets, hooded towels, bibs, socks, muslins, baby soft toys and rattles, baby wipes, nappies (any size), baby lotion, baby shampoo, baby bath, Baby rockers, baths, changing mats, 0-3 month knitted cardigans and jumpers.
We also accept preloved clothes up to the age of 5 years but kindly ask if they can be washed and put into sizes as we have few volunteers and no washing facilities at our centre.
Donating financially
Regular or one-off
We also encourage signing up to the website called Easy Fundraising
When you shop with participating retailers on their page, Bundles of Hope will get a donation from retailers you shop with at no extra cost to yourselves. It’s a great way to help us raise even more on the things you’re buying anyway.
