@L_R_Danil Hi Linda, thanks for your kind offer. Yes, we are always in need of toiletries.

Do you have any spare blankets that could be donated to help keep women accessing The Haven warm and cosy this Christmas?

Please email [email protected] if you can help.

Thank you.

Did you know we also provide a home for the dogs of people who are offered a place with us at Crossways?

We have a couple of dogs with us over Christmas and wonder if there are any local pet stores/suppliers who could spare some tins of food to help keep their bellies full.
