Donations of basic foods and hygiene items are always welcomed. If you are a retailer, manufacturer or wholesaler and wish to dispose of your end of line items, we would be pleased to accept them on behalf of the poor and needy.
There are often quite a few empty shelves that need stock.

Desmond Swayne MP
joined some Basics Bank volunteers recently in distributing food parcels to those local New Forest residents who needed the Bank's support!
He was updated on the building funds, how Basics Bank works, why it exists and the social service it provides to the local community.
The MP took time to view the plans of the new Basics Bank Distribution Centre, which is now located on land behind the recently refurbished Lymington URC and the Church's new community hall from where the Open Door Project operates.
His visit included time on site to see the progress on the newly refurbished URC plus the facilities the church/community hall will offer to all.

Gifts of trading stock to a UK Charity
If you donate goods that your business makes or sells - your 'trading stock' - to a UK charity, you can claim the cost of these goods in your business accounts.
This applies whether you're a sole trader or in business as a partnership or company. You don't have to include anything in your sales income for the value of the gift.
