A charity shop that turns donations into practical help
We are preparing a charity shop in Aberdeen to support people and families who need essential items, encouragement and a welcoming place to belong.
Through donated clothes, household goods and volunteer support, Pilgrim Bridge wants to offer practical help with dignity, care and respect.
We Collect Donations
We receive good-quality clothes, shoes, household items and other useful things that can help people in everyday life.
We Sort & Prepare
Our volunteers carefully sort, clean and organise donated items so they can be offered in a respectful and practical way.
We Provide Essentials
We help people find basic items they may need for their home, family, work, study or daily routine.
We Support Families
Your donation helps us support Ukrainian families, refugees and local people in Aberdeen who are facing difficult circumstances.
We Reduce Waste
By giving donated items a second life, we help the community save resources and reduce unnecessary waste.
We Build Community
The charity shop is not only about things. It is also a place for meeting people, sharing support and building trust.
Why this shop matters
Practical help for people starting again
Many people arrive in a new place with very little. A warm coat, a pair of shoes, kitchen items or school clothes can make daily life easier and less stressful.
A welcoming place, not just a shop
We want the charity shop to be a friendly space where people can feel seen, respected and supported — whether they come to receive help, donate items or volunteer.
Donations that keep giving
Every donated item can do more than fill a shelf. It can help someone in need, support our charitable work and bring people together around a shared purpose.
