From time to time the donation centre may be temporarily closed if we cannot accommodate any more donations due to lack of space. Thank you for not leaving donations outside of our building when we are closed.

How long do I have to wait after my person has died to contact you?There is not a certain amount of time that has to pass before you can reach out. However, it’s important to note we don’t provide crisis support. When someone dies, the emotions that arise are so overwhelming, it can leave you feeling terrified. Know this is not uncommon! The first few weeks after a death are usually a whirlwind, so we often will suggest waiting until these weeks have passed before making an appointment. This ensures you can give the necessary attention, love and energy to yourself to begin to explore your grief.
