What can I donate?
We will arrange free collection of your furniture. We just ask that it’s in saleable condition. You can donate:
- Sofas
- Chairs
- Tables
- Wardrobes
- Chests of drawers
- Garden furniture
- Beds and bedroom furniture
Before booking your collection
If you’re donating an upholstered item to us, please check that it has a label saying it meets UK safety standards.
Mattresses and upholstered bed bases must be in good clean condition with no rips, tears or stains, and must have a fire label sewn in, which refers to BS7177.
Toys and electricals must have the CE mark for safety.
Make your donation go further
If you’re a UK taxpayer, you can make your donation go further by filling in a Gift Aid declaration form when you donate things to us.
It couldn’t be easier and costs you nothing, but it means we can claim back 25p in tax from every £1 your donation brings in. That adds up to a big difference.
Will you help us to help people facing every parent’s worst nightmare?
As a charity, our shops provide £1.4m of the £6m income we need to raise this year to keep providing this invaluable support to families facing the unimaginable prospect of losing a child. By donating your unwanted things, you can help us continue to provide the love, care and expertise our families depend on.
