About Community Furniture Store

We are a group of three charities helping local communities by putting pre-owned donated furniture back into circulation, reducing waste through reuse and upcycling, and providing employment and skills experience to people facing long-term unemployment or barriers to work.

Our stores are open to everyone to buy good quality pre-owned furniture at affordable prices. To donate items or find out about volunteering opportunities please contact your local store.

What We Do

Protect the environment

We protect the environment by collecting donations of reusable household goods which would otherwise go to waste.

Assisting people

We assist people in need through the provision of low cost donated and new furniture and household goods.

Training

We offer training and work experience, particularly for long-term unemployed to help them return into paid employment.
