Donating & Gifting

Thank you! All gifts should be given without expectation of any reward, recognition or favours, other than the joy of giving. As a community organisation, everything you see is the result of people donating their resources and we are all rewarded with the friendships we make and the fruits of our labour.

If we give gratitude rather than expect gratitude, there should be enough to go around.

Please ask and check if your gift is a good fit. Volunteers waste a lot of time taking other peoples “donations” to the tip. Headless manikins and casserole dishes are obvious examples of ill considered gifts but even garden related donations can be a hassle if there isn’t also someone to carry through with it’s use or repair.
