Bench with storage
Items you could fund raise for
Bike Shed
Flyers printing so we can advertise the place and upcoming activities

If you are thinking of donating and would like it to go towards something specific on our wish list, please let us know when donating (eg. put as a reference on a bank transfer).
Large items
Double bed frame?
At times we might welcome a fridge, freezer, cooker and other items of furniture – please contact us first if you are looking for a new home for any of these.
Please email us to check first before bringing us other things you’d like to donate – it’s difficult for us to store things, and then we may have to spend time getting it somewhere else. We will assume that it is OK to pass anything on to someone else who can benefit if we don’t actually need something that has been donated – 4 step ladders can be two too many!
Horton Women's Holiday Centre 
Hello, would you like a shed for the gatden? il check the measurements, but it is in parts at current as my parents have taken it down,
but it is a decent shed for storage or potting shed.
It is wooden and could be painted any color.
Kind Regards Sarahjane
Hi SarahJane,
Sorry for the delay in anyone getting back to you 😦
Please could you phone the house on 01729860207 and let the workers know more details if the shed is still available? Sounds promising – especially if you’re able to deliver? If not, then let them know where it is too, and we might be able to get someone else to pick it up?
Thanks so much for thinking of us x
do you still need pots and pans? Anything else kitchen wise needed?
Hi Catriona, I think we are okay for pots and pans at the moment – we do need a blender (not a hand blender) if you happen to be able to get hold of one? We will edit the list to take off a few things which we’ve received just now, thanks for the prompt 🙂
I donate wine chocs for you to raffle
