Given the large increase in demand for our service, we ask that you only place orders to fulfil immediate and urgent requirements for the most vulnerable clients. Some items are in higher demand than others and we do experience stock shortages in popular categories.  

At the current time we ask you to place small orders for urgently required items. This is to ensure that we are able to help as many people as possible. 

When we do not have the exact sizes or requested items in stock we try to send through the closest size we have at that time.

If items / sizes received are not suitable for your clients, we ask that you pass them onto someone in need as we cannot accept returns at this stage. 

We have new stock arriving each week, so you are welcome to place another order.

The Thread Together Clothing Hubs are an authentic in-store shopping experience where your clients have the ability to choose from a wide range of clothing options, find something they like and try them on to ensure they find something that suits their personality and circumstance.
