Trustees have regard lo the guidance of the Charity Commission and ensure that all activities undertaken are compliant with and carried out for the public benefit.ln addition, our charity shop provides daily, the opportunity for low-income families and individuals lo access clothing, bedding, cosmetics, books. toys and general household items at extremely low prices. The charity relies on several means of obtaining goods through donalions from the general public. with regular collections from churches and mosques. Most of the fumiture is generated by our house dearance services. The re-use of pre•loved items has a significant impact in tem)s of recycling and the prevention of landfill.
