CFA is an Independant Professional front line charity that provides low cost Crisis furniture packs tothose in dire need in our community. We are here to help, our core work is to provide a fully furnished home to those on the lowest income and vulnerable members of our community who are most in need who have been allocated empty accommodation. We provide all of the basic furniture & household items needed to set up a comfortable and safe home. This is our first priority. We offer this service at as low as possible rate - we make no profit but must cover our basic running costs in order to stay open. We seldom sell individual items that are part of our key packs as stock levels are tightly controlled. If we sell items that are part of our packs it would mean a person in need would not receive all of the items they need. We do not discriminate and all are welcome to access our service whatever background. We rely on clean donated household items. We work with many other charities and agencies such as Salvation Army, Social services, foster care, mental health charities, Armed services charities, Women's Aid, The Wallich, YMCA, CAB, Credit Unions, Housing Associations, prison service and many others who rely upon us for furniture home starter packs. Proof of benefits is needed to ensure we provide this service for those in true need. We require a set donation for this service to cover our basic running costs as we are not funded by any other bodies. We accept furniture, household items clean bedding and clothing. We offer a part house clearance service. Monetary donations are always welcome. We operate a strict appointment only service and we can meet with clients to make arrangement at various local locations. A set donation is required to secure items - this is a sliding price depending on size of pack and distance. We endeavour to keep our prices as low as possible and a single starter pack starts at just £90.00. Single item delivered from £40.00. We do not sell items that are donated for this purpose. All of our volunteers come from long term unemployed or disabled and we welcome people of all ages and backgrounds. A background check is made on all volunteers. Training is given to all volunteers and we have policies in place to maintain a safe and healthy experience for all volunteers. Please contact us for more information. Any items that are donated to us but unsuitable for our purpose may be sold to raise funds to keep us able to operate. CFA is a dedicated team of unpaid volunteers who work tirelessly to help those most in need furnish their homes. We rely on public donations of clean reusable items. We run a service 3 days a week. We accept clothing as well as all items you may need to help create a home for those who have experienced homelessness for whatever reason. A charge is made to cover our service.
