Help reduce the 1 million tonnes of clothing going to landfill each year and help charity  by having a  Scope clothing bank at your premises

Do you want to encourage reuse and recycling?
Would you like a charity to benefit from this?
Do you have space for a clothing bank?

We are offering community and business groups the opportunity to have a Scope clothing bank at their premises. By making use of the scheme you will be encouraging recycling while at the same time raising funds for Scope.

The clothing banks are provided free of charge and will be emptied on a regular basis. They are virtually vandal proof being metal in construction and measure approximately 5ftx5ftx6ft high and are ideal for outside locations. The clothing banks can take clothes, shoes, belts, bags and soft toys.

The recycle banks are a small but very practical way to demonstrate ‘wise stewardship’ of the things we no longer need and to be thoughtful in their disposal

Scope is a UK disability organisation whose focus is people with cerebral palsy (cp). One in 400 children born in the UK has cp. Our aim is that disabled people achieve equality: a society in which they are as valued and have the same human and civil rights as everyone else.
                                                                     
The collected clothes are sorted and graded and sold on by the charity to people needing affordable clothes through their network of charity shops. This provides much needed income for the charities work. The items that cannot be sold are recycled ensuring that nothing goes to waste or to landfill.

Locating a Scope clothes bank at your school, community centre, car park, or other community location will help Scope raise much needed funds for their life changing work...

''It's amazing to see what can happen if you get the right help and support. For example we were at Coral's School the other day when Coral's class was taking assembly and all the kids were taking part. At the end Coral was up there with the other children playing musical instruments, dancing a dance, doing exactly what she was supposed to be doing with the other children, really enjoying herself and this is what can happen when you get the right support.
Why do we have to struggle and fight to get that?''
- Gary and Coral
