The charity collects, for reuse or recycling, furniture, clothes, books etc. Some of the furniture and other items are given to those in poverty or otherwise disadvantaged. The remainder is sold to the general public through a shop. The activities provide volunteer and work-placement opportunities to those who may otherwise be socially excluded. The charity continues to trade in the Bridge Street building in Linwood making a positive impact on the local community, with a majority of customers now coming from the local area. We continue to see new volunteers joining the team with mutual benefit and continually look for more. We continue to give away furniture, clothes, bedding, prams and more, to those in need by means of referral from the local council, from other charities and self-help groups.

Objectives: 4.1 The prevention or relief of poverty. 4.2 The advancement of environmental protection or improvement. 4.3 The relief of those in need by reason of age, ill-health, disability, financial hardship or other disadvantage.
