Bag it up | Recycling to change lives

We can use any unwanted clothes, shoes and household textiles such as bedding and towels.  By donating them in our recycling banks, we can generate vital funds for our charity partners.

Please donate your clothing, shoes and textiles to any of our partner charities by using our clothing recycling banks situated at household waste sites, supermarkets and car parks around your region. Use the 
Bank Locator at the top of the page to find your nearest bank.

Please put your items in any type of bags before donating them, such as bin liners or carrier bags, to help keep them dry and protected.

This in turn also helps save the environment by reducing waste at landfill sites, and provides an affordable clothing supply to communities worldwide. Approximately 3% of household waste is made up of textiles, and it is estimated that more than 1million tonnes of textiles are send to landfill each year. Good quality items which can be reused are sold to second-hand clothing traders in the UK and worldwide. 'End of life' garments are recycled into industrial wipers and cloths, mattress filling, insulation and new fibres.
