Prospect Hospice invites you to embrace Sustainable September – a month dedicated to mindful living, reducing waste and supporting both planet and personal wellbeing. Together, we can celebrate sustainability.
Sustainability has become synonymous with September. It’s a time to champion second-hand treasures, conscientious choices, and to break free from the grip of fast fashion. Whether you’re new to thrifting or a seasoned charity shop enthusiast, we invite everyone in our community to join us on this sustainable journey.
Bring your pre-loved clothes to any Prospect Hospice shop – or visit one of our 17 retail shops or our eBay shop for your seasonal wardrobe revamp. Make a commitment to shop second-hand throughout September exclusively.
Incorporate more organic, local, and sustainably sourced produce into your meals. Browse our café menus at our Heart of the Hospice café.
Choose second-hand furniture and homeware instead of buying new. Our Furniture & Home store offers quality pieces that are built to last—and with our delivery and collection service, it’s simple to shop sustainably or donate your pre-loved items. Every piece finds a new home, avoids landfill, and supports hospice care.
Support or host local clean-ups. You could team up with community groups or simply start small – plant a garden, organise a swap or run a mending session. In fact, you could always join our volunteer team!
Whether it’s a complete pre-loved wardrobe revamp from your local Prospect Hospice shop or a gem from our eBay shop, we would love you to share it with us. Tag us @prospecthospice when you post using the hashtag #SustainableSeptember and we’ll share your sustainable stories.
Being part of Sustainable September not only allows you to do your bit for the environment but also by choosing to shop at Prospect Hospice, you will be supporting vital work within your local community.
