When someone we’ve supported accepts the keys on a tenancy, it’s sometimes the first place they have been able to call home for a very long time. Walking into a room with fresh new bed linen and a few other quality home comforts like a bedside table and lamp and a comfy chair to sit in, can go a long way to help people feel truly valued and restore self-esteem. This is often the first step in helping someone to rebuild their life and leave the trauma of homelessness behind for good.
Due to very limited storage, we can only accept donations of specific items on our wish list below (or any items requested via our social media). For hygiene reasons, we are unable to accept any donations of second-hand bedding or mattresses. Thank you for your understanding!
We’ve broken down our most urgent needs into two specific kits. You can help us build them by either making a donation to fund a complete kit below, or by buying the items directly and having them delivered straight to our office: KCAH, St Peter’s Church Hall, London Road, Kingston upon Thames, KT2 6QL.
