Our aims

Treasure Tree is a social enterprise with social good at its roots. We aim to:

  • Improve the economic wellbeing of unpaid carers and their families.
  • Raise money to ensure the sustainability of VOCAL’s support services for unpaid carers.
  • Encourage the re-use of mobility equipment and reduce the cost of caring.
  • Promote independence, safety, social inclusion & quality of life for the elderly, disabled and their carers.
  • Help to give elderly and disabled people control over their own lives.

Here’s how it works…

  • Contact us with details of what you wish to donate or sell
  • Bring your items to us (pickup may be available for larger items)
  • We photograph and list your items online then display them in our shop within Ocean Terminal shopping centre
  • Once the item is sold you will receive 50% of the profit if this is your choice, and the other 50% supports a local charity!
