A note from Helen

Micah is about simple things done well. A box of preloved clothes packed with care, a school badge pressed onto a jumper, a cup of tea and a chat. Small things that make a big difference to families across Ayrshire.

 

At the heart of everything we do is dignity. Anyone can come to Micah, whether you're choosing to live more sustainably or need a bit of extra support. No pressure, and never any stigma or shame.

 

It's good for the planet and great for the pocket. Every item and every penny helps us support families, reduce costs, care for the planet, and build a community where good things are shared, reused and valued.

 

None of it would happen without our wonderful volunteers, donors and local groups. Thank you. Let's keep treasuring what we already have, together.

Act justly. Love mercy. Walk humbly.

Helen, CEO

Clothes for growing kids

Twice Treasured boxes are packed with quality preloved outfits, open to every family. Prefer to use Micah Pay? Just ask.

Got something to give?

Outgrown clothes, school uniform, books, toys or a few pounds. It all goes straight back into local families.

Got a few hours?

Sort, pack, sew or help at events. Come as you are. We'll put the kettle on and show you the ropes.

£5

Pay it forward

Every £5 goes into our Micah Pay pot, so another local family can get a Twice Treasured box for free, simply and with dignity.
