Founder Jackie Clark said the charity has recently received a couple of bin bags worth of dirty clothes and shoes. She said many of the women she supports already have a low sense of self-esteem and receiving dirty donations can be harmful. Edridge said his team have similar experiences to The Aunties with people donating broken and dirty clothes, bedding and furniture. Clark said she also works with more than 2000 people dealing with domestic violence a year to provide access to resources.
