1 gift with a value of £10-20 and 2nd gift value of £5.

There will be gift bags and wrapping paper available too so you can wrap the gift before you leave.

When you arrive you will be asked how many children/teenagers you have and their ages.

You will be given coloured tickets that match the gifts suitable for your child/teenagers age range.

You will then enter the room where the gifts will be on display and you can exchange the tickets for gifts. We ask that everyone please kindly respects these rules.

All gifts are brand new and have been donated by local business and people from the community.

If you need to bring your children with you, that’s not a problem they can sit in our other hall while you select the gifts. Children will not be allowed in the gift hall, so to keep the gifts a surprise.

Thank you 🇺🇦

We would like to thank STV news for covering our Ukrainian Coffee & Chat event on Sunday 24th July. You can read their article at https://news.stv.tv/north/ukrainian-woman-at-home-in-dundee-as-city-rallies-around-refugees?amp

As featured on STV news on 25 July 2022, we continue to support local Ukrainian refugees by holding ”Coffee and chat” events twice per month. These events provide an opportunity for Ukrainians to meet together and visit a free shop of clothes, toys, toiletries and house goods. We also have local hairdressers offering free haircuts.

On Saturday 30th July from 9am to 2pm we are holding a donation day to stock up our free shop. Further information can be found in the flyer below.
