The Lincoln Hygiene Bank
Helping Our Community Stay Clean with Dignity

Launched in September 2022, the Lincoln Hygiene Bank is a community project run by The Centre for Reconciliation, supporting individuals and families who are struggling to afford essential hygiene products.
We collect donated personal hygiene, baby and household products and distribute them free of charge through regular community sessions across Lincoln and the surrounding area.
At the heart of the Lincoln Hygiene Bank is a simple belief: everyone should have access to basic hygiene essentials with dignity.
