Story

We are Bare Necessities Toiletry Bank, just like a food bank but only for toiletries and hygiene stuff. We help local people keep clean when they can’t afford the everyday essentials we all take for granted; it’s things like tooth paste, shampoo, deodorant and shower gel. Hygiene poverty is really shaming & humiliating, it makes everyday life an ordeal.

We’re not ok with that, we say we’re here because no-one should have to choose between eating and keeping clean. Together we make a difference
