Electrical Goods and Bikes Needed for Local Charity

September is a month of getting re-organised, maybe you're thinking about clearing out the garage or buying that new electrical appliance for the kitchen. Don't just throw out your old appliances and equipment, REACT can re-use them. There is a high demand for electrical appliances and bikes are also very popular, so if you're thinking of upgrading please donate your old gear.

The REACT project based behind the main MRC building, is based around furniture re-use and is currently in short supply of domestic appliances. All goods are tested and repaired by a qualified engineer and then passed onto local people on low income for a nominal charge. Collection of the items can be arranged.

The funds raised from selling the electrical appliances and re-used furniture are returned to the project to fund training for the long term unemployed. Lorraine Harrison, Head of Enterprise, Training & Initiatives explained "Electrical appliances are desperately needed by those just setting up home who cannot afford to buy new, we recycle people's unwanted items to help others and it saves people having to arrange having the items collected and taken to the tip" Lorraine continued "Last year, through the REACT project, we were able to save 100 tons of furniture and white goods from land fill. Unlike national charities, we are a Coalville based charity which means funds raised from selling these items goes straight back into the community so anyone donating anything to us are genuinely helping local people".

For those wishing to come along and browse the current stock of brand new and reused furniture the REACT furniture warehouse is open six days a week, Mondays to Fridays from 9.00am to 2:30pm. The warehouse is well stocked with brand new mattresses and beds including wooden slatted beds and faux leather bed frames, as well as bedroom furniture and sofas and corner settee all competitively priced.

What's more, we can deliver your new furniture to you for a nominal charge and for anyone in North West Leicestershire on means tested benefits, delivery is completely free.

So, if you are having a clear out and have any electrical appliances or have an old bike in the garage that's not doing much or anything you think may be of use to us please call The Marlene Reid Centre on 01530 510515 or call the REACT Furniture Project directly on 01530 512454.
