* Volunteers *

We have been approached by a number of members wishing to become Volunteers and help out with either sorting items or being a drop off point for donations.
We are so grateful to all of you who have enquired and once restrictions have lifted we would love to take on some help, especially with drop off points in different areas, as we néed people in Winchester, Salisbury and Bournemouth or Poole as this would make our lives so much easier and free up more time to source items and therefore help more people.

A drop off point is basically where people can take their donations and we can then collect weekly etc. We will provide a sign stating New Life Domestic to put up in your window, if you don’t mind, so that people donating can easily find you, we will always contact you first to inform you that someone is coming, as we are only taking items needed until storage can be found.

If you would like to be a Volunteer please go to the link below and click on the ‘About Us’ heading. You will find a Volunteer form to fill in and submit. We can then get in touch with you regarding what you would like to do.

The reason for asking our volunteers to fill in a form is because, firstly, we work with vulnerable people and we therefore need to know who we have working with us and secondly, we are working towards getting Charity Status and therefore need to do everything correct and above board to show the Charity Commission.

We hope you understand and that some of you will be willing to help in the near future. Thanks from the Admin Team xx

We have already begun to receive Donations towards our next Raffle and would like to Thank everyone who has Donated a Gift. We are not sure when we shall be holding the next Raffle yet, having only just held one, but we may do them as a monthly thing, as we feel it is a great way of raising funds and it gives us a chance to give something back to you for your support.

We are trying to think of different ways of picking the Winners names though to make it fairer, as for some reason this time alot of people won more than 1 Prize, so if you have any ideas please let us know, we always welcome your input.

Also if you have a Business and feel that you can donate a gift to our Raffle, to help towards raising money for our cause, we will be more than happy to write a post about your company and let all our members know how generous you have been.

Thank you xxx
