Title: DONATE YOUR LARGE ELECTRICALS TO A GOOD CAUSE
Post by: collymarps on September 17, 2012, 11:11:28 AM

If you are planning to replace any large, working household appliances then why not donate them to a good cause.
Instead of sending good quality items to be recycled, give them to your local furniture reuse project who will give them a new lease of life.
Chesterfield based YMCA Derbyshire New2u furniture project is holding a household electricals collection event on Saturday September 29 from 9am to 3pm.
They are encouraging people to bring along their old but working white goods like washing machines, fridges, freezers and microwaves.
New2u staff will test all donated appliances before selling them on to low income households meaning that your old items will get a whole new lease of life.
You also have the chance to enter into a prize draw to win £50 of shopping vouchers if you donate your electrical items.
If you are unable to bring bulky electrical items to the collection event and you live within 10 miles of Chesterfield, New2u offers a free home collection service.
Call 07547 919803 and they will arrange a suitable time and date to collect your large item. Quote “Derbyshire County Council” when calling to be entered into the free prize draw.
The collection event is on Saturday 29 September from 9am to 3pm at New2u, Units 42-43, Station Lane Industrial Estate, Station Lane, Old Whittington, Chesterfield S41 9QX.


Entry to the free prize draw closes on Friday October 26th 2012.
