A grant from Lloyds TSB Foundation for Scotland will help small drug misuse charities access donated goods from In Kind Direct at a reduced rate.

The grant enables Scottish voluntary sector organisations working with vulnerable children affected by drug misuse and with an annual income of under £500,000 to register with In Kind Direct for a subsidised rate of £30 plus VAT. They will also receive £75 of discount vouchers, which can be exchanged for around £750 worth of goods.

In Kind Direct’s network of charities can choose from hundreds of essential everyday items, available at savings of up to 90% of their usual cost.
