Get your unwanted items collected from your home

News and comment

Through our partner Anglo Doorstep Collections you can donate your unwanted clothing and items to raise funds for Together for Short Lives. Plus, you don’t even need to leave your house to do so. Read about Abi’s experience using the service below.

“I love to have a declutter of my home and try to be as conscious as I can about items going to waste. This does however mean I’m often left with bags in my spare bedroom that I intend to take into town to donate but never get around to it!

“When I found out about the Anglo charity doorstep collections it seemed like a win-win. Someone comes to my house to collect the items I wish to donate, and they raise funds for Together for Short Lives. Perfect!

“Another great thing, is they don’t just take clothes. Books, CDs, small electricals, kitchenware, toiletries, toys. The list goes on.

“The first time I booked the collection I didn’t know what to expect but it was top-class service. I followed the link from the Together for Short Lives website. Then I picked a day and time that suited me, made sure my items were bagged up and that was it.

“I received an email confirming when they’ll arrive and, on the day, I received another to say they’re on their way. With a ring of the doorbell, everything was collected by a friendly driver and off they went.

“This was a great time saver for me, and I got that nice feeling that I’m helping families who need it. I found out that Anglo Doorstep Collections have raised over £26,000 for Together for Short Lives and I’m glad to be a part of that.

“I’ve recommended this service to lots of friends now who have had the same great experience. I’d definitely give it a go if you want to donate your unwanted items. It’s easy for you and you’ll be making a difference.”
