Watchhouse Wardrobe
“Watchhouse Wardrobe”
another Environmental initiative 😊
 
 
 
 
Can you help?
 
We are looking for good quality clothing donations for our next Environmental project: “Watchhouse Wardrobe”. 
 
Start checking out your un-wanted clothes (both men’s & women’s) to be donated to the watchhouses that need clothes for the perpetrators to wear into court etc.
 
Often times clothing worn during an offence are seized by police for investigative / evidentiary purposes leaving them with no clothing. Things like track suit pants (with cords removed) shirts, jumpers etc are always in demand. 
 
Anything deemed not suitable for that cause can always be donated to CHATS as they now have a “shop” in Port Adelaide where the people in need of the area can get free clothing.
 
Please contact Alison Howlett or any others on the Environment/Vocation Committee.
