Donating for a Good Cause
Your donations allow us to continue taking unwanted goods and giving them to those who need them.
As the cost of living crisis continues to spiral, we are helping more people in the community by giving back unwanted items. As a community interest project, we have to raise funds independently to keep this project going and support people in need.
If you would like to make a monetary donation that would mean the world not just to us, but also for all the people who benefit from our programmes.
Volunteer
Volunteer with Us!
Volunteer with us and get back so much more than you give. Meet new people, gain new skills, and raise awareness of local waste and sustainability that can be reused and help people
However much time you have and whatever your experience, there’s an opportunity for you at Get Rid of and Donate. We need assistance with various roles from becoming a collection driver, raising funds, social media, and PR and marketing.
Volunteering is at the heart of every healthy community. You can expect to make a genuine difference to someone’s life.
