What We Do

We raise money through sales from our shops that is then used to provide equipment to local NHS services.

We support local schools & colleges in providing work experience and Duke of Edinburgh’s Award Scheme placements to students.
We employ a small team of staff and a HUGE number of fantastic volunteers from diverse backgrounds in order to help us do this.

How Can You Support Us?
There are several ways you can support our work,
- Donate your time – Join our team and become a volunteer.
- Donate some money – You can make single or repeat donations securely via Enthuse.
- Donate your knowledge – Register your interest to become a Trustee or assist us on special projects.
- Nominate a Star – If you’ve received service above and beyond, nominate the volunteer to receive one of our bi-annual Star Awards.
