What you can give

Please note that The Besom in Taunton is taking a break from Monday 23 December for 2 weeks. We will be back to normal from Monday 6 January, and will get back to you after that date.

Have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

If you would like to donate items, please fill in this form. This helps us with all the details we need. We will then get back to you as soon as possible.

Donations of good quality furniture are always needed. Please see the list below.

Kitchen equipment

Kettles and toasters in good condition and working order are often requested. Unfortunately we cannot accept large electrical items such as fridges and freezers, cookers, microwaves or washing machines.

Mugs, plates, cutlery, saucepans and kitchen utensils for starter packs are also welcomed.

Soft furnishings

We are also pleased to receive good quality curtains, bedding and towels. (No fitted sheets, please.)

Rugs and carpet off cuts

Rugs and pieces of carpet in good condition are also very useful.

Thank you!
