We are a used furniture shop to serving the local community. This will involve receiving donations of quality used furniture and selling them on to anyone in the community at a friendly price to cover the costs of running the shop. After the shop’s running costs have been covered the remaining furniture will be available to be given, free of charge, to families on low incomes or in crisis. Free fu
rniture
In general free furniture will be given to families referred to us by one of the many social caring agencies; e.g. Social Services, Children’s Centres, Health Visitors etc. Donations of furniture
Often people in our area moving into a fresh house or flat have nothing. If you have any good quality used furniture that you can let us have we will be most grateful. Typical needs for a new start are:
double and single beds with mattresses, wardrobes, chests of drawers, storage units, bedside cabinets and lights, 2 seater sofas with matching chairs, coffee tables, TVs and stands (old with freeview box is fine), sideboards with good storage, small dining tables and/or drop leaf type with chairs, under-worktop fridge freezers and larger fridge freezers, washers, electric cookers (not gas), kitchen utensils and pans etc., curtains and tracks for 7ft and 5 ft windows and often carpets as well. Please don't be offended if you see that something you have donated is for sale. We will keep a stock of the above items to meet needs as they arise and sell other items to cover the costs of more expensive items that are most needed but come in least often such as cooker,s washers, fridge freezers and carpets. Deliveries
Deliveries can be arranged at a cost of £10 within a 5 mile radius of OL2 6UA. Funds raised above running costs will be used to purchase items needed for free distribution that we do not have in stock at the time of need.
