Believe it or not, 25% of people in the UK have no preloved garments in their wardrobe. The British Heart Foundation plans on changing this by spreading the word on how to properly shop and donate preloved items. This is the perfect time for a clear out as we approach the festive season. So here's how you can easily rehome all your preloved items.
Make use of your local donation points
BHF donation boxes/bins and clothing banks provide the perfect sustainable solution for decluttering as you prepare to move out of your accommodation. The British Heart Foundation’s network of 712 shops and stores means that they can help find new local homes for pre-loved treasures, whether it’s quality clothes you no longer wear, a unique piece of jewellery, a tablet or exercise equipment. Don't worry about whether it's in season or not (eventually everything comes back into season anyway), as every item sold will be turned into funds for life-saving science and help support the 7.6 million people in the UK living with heart and circulatory diseases.
You can find donation points on campus for LSE students:
There is a British Heart Foundation donation box on the first floor of SAW (SU), in all 6 LSE Managed Halls and Westminster Bridge. Robeson House, your box is coming soon!
