We appreciate any help you can give, whether in the form of a financial donation (click here to donate online by credit card), gifts in kind, second-hand goods suitable for selling in our charity shop or donations of time. Gifts in kind With more than 20 old age homes and service centres to maintain, we are always in need of basic household items - from toiletries and food through to paint, furnishings, bed linen, and towels. If you have any items to donate, please contact us on tel. 031 332-3721 to arrange delivery or collection. Second-hand goods Household clearances, deceased estates and general second hand goods are always accepted with gratitude. In particular, we need:
Items donated to TAFTA are taken to the Squirrels Workshop in Aliwal Street, where they are sorted and listed by volunteers. Some items (e.g. nightdresses, bedjackets, etc) are given to our Frail Care Homes. Others, such as walking sticks, go to the Home Based Care Department, while books, magazines and games are taken to our Service Centres. Other items, such as clothing, household goods, crockery and small items of furniture, are issued to needy pensioners. Items that are not suitable or not needed for any of these purposes are sold at our charity shop. If you're looking for second-hand bargains, be sure to visit our charity shop, Granny's Attic, situated at street level at Kings Hall in Aliwal Street. It's a treasure trove of household smalls, bric-a-brac, books, artwork, clothing and furniture - all at very reasonable prices! What's more, when you shop at Granny's Attic, you're also helping to care for needy pensioners, because proceeds from the shop help provide items not usually donated, such as hotplates, blankets and underwear. The money also helps provide nourishing meals and medication for needy pensioners. |
