What the charity does
The Big House Multibank exists to relieve poverty and improve wellbeing for children and families across Scotland by providing access to essential household goods, while also reducing waste. We collect surplus new and unused items such as bedding, clothing, toiletries, baby products and cleaning essentials from retailers and manufacturers. Where donated supply does not meet need, we purchase priority items at cost price. Goods are stored and distributed from our warehouse in Lochgelly, supported by satellite hubs in Dundee, Perth and Edinburgh. Support is delivered through a trusted network…

Why there's no Clarity Score yet
The Clarity Score is computed from full financial filing history. The Big House SCIO is on the official register but outside the detailed-filing group we currently score (or awaiting its first filings), so we show its official register record instead of a rating. Its score appears automatically once enough filing data exists — never by payment. How scoring works
