Both services provide women with vital resources such as food, clothing, shoes, condoms, safety alarms, toiletries, harm reduction kits and seasonal items. Many of this stock is kindly donated. This stock needs to be sorted through prior to shifts to ensure both the hub and van are stocked when the women access.

We’re looking for friendly, reliable volunteers to help look after Dorothy House donation boxes in their local area.
