Ms Archer said, “On top of this, people pilfer donated goods left beside the bins of a weekend and after hours.” “We ask donors to check with us in the store before leaving items beside the bins and to only bring in items that you would buy yourself,” she said. “The money spent on the new security fencing and waste disposal, limits the funds we have available for the genuine poor and needy,” Ms Archer said. “Please drop in during business hours and ask us about what you have to offer so that we can run the charity on a more profitable basis,” she said.
