Turning your unwanted items into vital end of life care for local people
Our shops will be pleased to accept donations of pre-loved goods but, before donating, please check our list below for items that we can accept. If you have a large number of items to donate, we recommend contacting the shop you will be donating to to check that they have the room to accept this as we have limited storage facilities at a number of our shops. For the contact details and opening times of all our shops, please click here.
Please do not leave donations outside of our shops as this could be classed as fly-tipping. These donations can not be sold to raise money for the hospice and we have to pay for these donations to be removed.
For larger furniture items please email vanbookings@prospect-hospice.net with your name, contact number, full address and postcode along with photos of the items (including attached fire labels) or call our distribution centre on 01793 813362 and leave your name and number and we will contact you within two working days (Monday to Friday) to arrange collection.

Did you know that by adding Gift Aid, your donations are worth 25% more to Prospect Hospice?
If you sign up in one of our shops, it only takes two minutes and costs you nothing.
Gift Aid is a scheme run by HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) that means charities like Prospect Hospice can reclaim the tax on your donations at no extra cost to you so, if your donations sell for £10, we will actually receive £12.50.
You must be a current UK taxpayer, but this is not limited to tax on earnings. You only need to have paid as much in tax as Prospect Hospice will reclaim on your donations.
Fill in a form in any of our shops, or ask our van driver when you are donating items of furniture to us. Rest assured, we will never share your details with third parties.
