How you can help:
Volunteers Needed! – We always need more volunteers to help out in various roles:
- Manning reception in our Respite Home.
- Helping in our shop in Totana (car share available from Camposol B) – general sales staff, till operators and floor walkers, sorters, checking donations as they arrive and preparing them for sale (washing etc) and ironers.
- Driving patients to their appointments.
- Working on our van, collecting and delivering furniture etc. (think of the saving in gym fees!)
If you can spare a few hours and would like to help we would love to see you. It is very rewarding work and makes a huge difference to those that need our help.
Plus!
We always need donations of furniture, bric-a-brac etc. for our shop in Totana.
Collections
For furniture and larger items please message MABS Charity Shop, Totana Facebook or phone 634 313 478 to arrange collection.
For smaller items, we have donation ‘boxes’ for clothes, bric-a-brac, books etc. in our Respite Home, Alley Palais, Camposol B and The Club House, Camposol C.
