Age UK Wiltshire is working in partnership with Community First, Alzheimer’s Support, Wiltshire Service Users Network, Citizens Advice Wiltshire and Wessex Community Action, under the umbrella, ‘Carers Together Wiltshire’. This partnership will allow us to provide tailored support and respite to the thousands of individuals across Wiltshire identified as a carer.
We have recently opened new Charity Shops in Marlborough, Salisbury and Bradford-on-Avon. All of which require your good quality, clean donations. If you cannot make it to one of our shops, you can fill out our collection form. Find out more about donating to us by clicking on the link below.
