Please Note:
1. We do not deliver or provide individual hampers.
2. We are all volunteers under a lot of pressure due to high demand. We are grateful for your respect and patience.
For people needing essential items or accommodation on a long term basis, please refer to other organisations (such as Vinnies, Salvos, Unison Housing, local council, etc). Alternatively feel free to contact us and we can help guide you in the right direction. There are amazing resources out there!
Thank you for your cooperation. Let’s continue to work together.
