You don’t need to repair something for it to have value. If it’s unwanted, we can help pass it on.
Simply check the events calendar for partner drop-off dates and bring your unwanted items to our monthly Repair Café at Silsden Methodist Church.
When something no longer works for you, it might be exactly what someone else needs. That’s why we partner with local and national charities who give unwanted items new purpose – —saving them from landfill and creating real impact for people and communities.
Your items. Real impact.
Through partnerships with local non-profit organisations, we make sure donations go where they’re needed most. Forexample, :
- Old laptops and phones go to Solidaritech, who refurbish them for asylum seekers and refugees, helping them access education, support services and rebuild their lives here in the UK.
- Unwanted bicycles are passed to Upcycle, where they become part of prisoner training programmes across the UK. Through bike repair workshops, participants learn practical skills, build confidence and plan for life after release.
- Tools and haberdashery are collected for Workaid, reaching communities in Africa who use them to develop skills, start small businesses and improve self-reliance.
- Medication and small equipment (e.g. hearing aids, TENS machines) are passed onto Stitch4Charity WY who provide humanitarian aid for Ukraine
- Unwanted stationery – including pens, pencils, crayons, rulers, notebooks paper, files etc are collected for The Gambia Schools Trust – a UK based charity which aims to improve educational facilities in the Gambia.
