*Update, we have been informed through Amazon that they are having some issues with processing some of the purchases for the New Safe House wish list.
They are trying to resolve the issue.
But in the mean time, we have added gift vouchers to the wish list, so if you purchase a voucher to the value of the item and add the item to the note, and send it using email SWA@swanseawa.org.uk, we could purchase the item on your behalf. Thank you for your ongoing support.
Swansea Women's Aid is opening a new safe house in the Swansea area, and we need your help to turn it form being just a house, into a home for the women and children who will need it.
We have created an Amazon Wish list of all the items that the new home will need; starting with cutlery, cushions and plates to hoovers, mattresses and bedding.
If you are able to purchase an item from our wish list, it would all add to making a safe safe and comfortable home for those women who need it.
Thank you
