Edinburgh City Mission Basics Bank
This is a project run by Edinburgh City Mission which provides a friendly, non-threatening atmosphere where individuals, parents and children can find the kind of help they need, whether that be practical, emotional or spiritual.
We contribute to this project through practical donations which are then delivered to the Bruntsfield Basics Bank centre on Fridays. The types of things that we take are non-perishable food items such as: rice, soup, tea, coffee, sugar, tinned meat, tinned fish or tinned fruit, cereals snacks. Shampoo, toothpaste and other toiletries are also welcomed.
