Donate your curtains this winter
Wellington Curtain Bank needs 300 more pairs of curtains before the end of winter to meet demand. Supported by Sustainability Trust, the Curtain Bank provides free, lined curtains to low-income families who need a hand to warm up their homes. We upcycle donated curtains and need a ready supply to support the more than 500 families a year who apply for them. Donate your pre-loved curtains at: War Memorial Library, 2 Queens Drive, Lower Hutt, Monday – Friday, 10am – 5.30pm, Saturday 10am – 5pm, Sunday 1pm – 5pm, or click here for more drop off points.
