What happens to the items you donate?
We sort, clean and test items to ensure they are working; they are then sent to be sold at our Love it Again Store in West Street, as well as giving furniture and other essential household items to residents in Horsham facing crisis (criteria applies to ensure we give to those most in need).
Some items are not suitable for re-use and we always consider options to recycle items to reduce environmental impact, including for example, metal and scrap materials recycling.
