Don't bin it - donate it!

The UWE Sustainability Hub is collecting clean, good‑quality items to give them a second life. Donating is a simple way to cut down on waste, support circular living, and help out your fellow students who might need a little extra.

🌍 What can you donate?

🏠 Small household & electrical items.

Kettles, plates, bowls, mugs, utensils, toasters, lamps, small appliances, and other everyday essentials.

👕 Clothes, shoes & bedding

Clean, wearable items that someone else can use — from jumpers and coats to duvet covers and sheets.

✔️ Before donating, please make sure items are:

  • Clean and in decent condition
  • Bagged up and easy to carry
  • Safe — not broken, sharp, or hazardous

Let’s keep donations useful, safe, and ready for their next home.
