Activities

Refurnish is an entrepreneurial social enterprise that delivers social, environmental and economic targets. The organisation was formed in response to two factors; lack of affordable furniture for disadvantaged people who were often exploited by unethical lenders and the vast amounts of reusable furniture being buried in landfill. We use or work as a training aid for disadvantaged people.
