Donations
Thank you so much for your patience as we caught up on processing all of your donations we received last week. We are delighted to be able to re-open accepting donations from Wednesday 8th July.
For your convenience we have made some changes to the way we accept them. We ask that you please ring individual shops before bringing any items to check we are able to accept them. Some shops do have a booking system in place now so please do contact us on the following telephone numbers prior to setting off:
Gateshead 0191 478 7261
Gosforth 0191 284 7298
Jesmond 0191 281 3773
Kingston Park 0191 286 8040
North Shields 0191 258 3763
Shiremoor 0191 270 1951
Due to having to hold all donations for 72 hours we have limited space available and each shop may have different times and procedures for accepting donations, this is to ensure customer, volunteer and staff safety.
Our onsite donation point also remains closed at the moment. Our patients are amongst the most vulnerable, so please don’t bring any donations on site.
What items are we looking for?
We are looking for all types of clothing, including bags and jewellery, small electrical items and TV’s gym equipment and homeware, gifts and accessories. If you are unsure please speak to a member of our team when you call the shop who will be happy to advise you.

Our free collection service is unable to take any booking just yet. We do appreciate your support and we hope to be up and running soon. Please keep checking for any updates.
