Donate your spare storage space to DENS

Dry, secure storage space is essential for DENS. Without it, we could not accept the many generous food and clothing donations made to us by our supporters.

We currently have three storage places – one for food donations, one for clothing and one for small household items. However, our clothing store is being reclaimed and we need to urgently find alternative suitable storage for all the clothes, bed linen and towels that are donated to us. A warehouse or an empty building on an otherwise occupied site would be ideal.

DENS storage which has been given free of charge to us has enabled us to:

• store and distribute hundreds of tins of food, given to us by individuals, schools, churches, businesses etc.
• store small household objects and items of furniture until our homeless clients are moving into their own homes and need them;
• provide 200 cans of soup to the St Albans Sleepout in December 2006 which was given out to ‘sleepers’ raising funds for homeless charities including DENS.
• Distribute over 100 hampers of food and toiletries to disadvantaged and vulnerable men, women and families over Christmas 2005 and 2006 helping them to cope better over the festive period.

If you think you can help please phone DENS on 01442 262274.
