Gifts in kind

While monetary gifts are the most flexible way of supporting LITTLE EDEN, there are many day to day items that are always needed, and donations of these items means we don't have to budget to buy them.

In particular, we always need good quality used clothing in all sizes – especially socks, pyjamas and tracksuits – bedlinen, toiletries and office consumables (e.g. paper, stationery, specific ink cartridges, etc).

At Christmas time, especially, we appreciate gifts of toys for the children. Especially any of the following:

paints, crayons, pencils
face paints/makeup for dressing up
colouring in books
Duplo blocks
jigsaw Puzzles (up to 200 pieces)
newborn soft baby dolls
light balls and ball games
large plastic cars/trucks
small metal cars
musical instruments
plastic sandpit toys
toy telephones
push and pull along toys

Please note that we use a special bio-degradable industrial laundry detergent, and unfortunately cannot use donations of ordinary washing powder or fabric softener.
