Let's work together

Help us to sustain our service and match demand.

We have never been busier! We supported 400 children up to the end of 2019, and 2000 by August 2024. There are a variety of ways that you can support us:

We would love your clothing donations!

We would be thrilled to have your donations of good quality, preloved clothing from 6month-old baby size through to 12 years old.  Please sort clothing by gender and size e.g. 6-12 months, 1-2 years, and put in labelled bags.

Our policy on how we deal with any excess donations is available here.

You can drop your donations at one of our Collection Points at:

  • Fatface, Peebles
  • Co-op, Innerleithen
  • St Andrew's Church, West Linton
  • Treetop Toys, Melrose
  • Cafe ReCharge, Galashiels

CURRENTLY WE ARE UNABLE TO TAKE:

  1. Baby Clothing for 6months & under.
    ‍    We often get offered really lovely donations for babies under 6 months old, but we get very few requests for this age group. The Scot Baby Box Appeal are always looking for donations of good quality baby clothing to fill their reconditioned baby boxes. Further information on how to donate clothing can be found on their Facebook page at Scot Baby Box Appeal | Facebook
  2. School Uniform.
    ‍    We rarely get requests for school uniform & unfortunately do not have the storage space to keep a supply. Please offer good quality, pre-loved uniform clothing to local schools.
  3. Shoes.
    ‍    Unfortunately, we are unable to accept shoes & suggest these are donated to a local charity shop.
