Give us a brief overview of your business.
We’re a North East based and family-run independent fundraising and recycling company.
We partner with schools, community centres, charities, councils, and other organisations nationwide to help them to create long-term multiple sources of revenue through textile recycling and beyond.
Each partner receives a FREE interactive clothes bank, their own online profile to attract sponsors and share their fundraising goals and achievements with the community, access to our free nationwide home collection service, and a chance to place clothes banks at multiple locations.
We see a massive opportunity for our partners to create multiple, long-term, and self-sustainable sources of revenue.
Tell us about a recent business success.
1) We expanded into the Cumbria area with 20 confirmed locations.
2) We started implementing field-level sensors into our clothes banks.
3) One of the schools we support hit 10,000kg recycled.
Why are you a Chamber Member?
