Find a Charity Shop
Type in your full town/city name, or the first part of your postcode (e.g. DN1). Results are displayed in postcode order.
Please note: 'Specialist category' shops only appear if a charity has informed us a specialism exists. Your search may be more successful if you do not enter a specialist category, then contact the found shops for further information.
Charity shops are a great way to reuse and recycle unwanted items
By selling goods donated by the public, nearly £170 million is raised for charity every year. A further use is being provided for many items that might otherwise have gone to landfill. We estimate 363,000 tonnes of clothing and other textiles pass through charity shops every year. Charity shops provide good quality, affordable clothing and other items to those in need.
Furniture and electrical goods
If you are looking for a furniture or electrical goods shop and there are no charity shops in your area that accept these items, you can also contact a member of the Furniture Reuse Network. The FRN promote reuse of unwanted furniture and household items for the alleviation of need, hardship, distress and poverty. Find your nearest FRN members.
