02 Activities

What the charity does

Our Charity has three main aims. We primarily assist people in need, chiefly through the provision of donated household goods and new furniture and white goods at affordable prices. We also offer training and work experience placements and employment. We protect the environment by collecting items that would otherwise go to waste. We work with City of York Council and charities to furnish homes.
