Donate Unwanted Crutches and Walking Sticks to Help Those in Need in Gaza
…
Do you have crutches or walking sticks lying around your home that are no longer in use, that the NHS will not take back? Instead of letting them gather dust, why not donate them to a worthy cause?
xx
We are seeking your help to ensure they reach those who need them the most.

HOW TO DONATE
– If crutches are a pair, please have them taped together – all sizes welcome
– Please clean them if necessary
– Drop them at one of the drop-off points, listed below

If you don’t have crutches but would like to get involved, you can donate to the AJS towards the Crutches for Kindness campaign via our website:
Proceeds will go towards the Crutches for Kindness campaign to buy some walking aids on your behalf and contribute towards packaging costs.
