Hospice wants your unwanted Christmas presents and furniture

16 December 2011

If you receive any unwanted Christmas presents this year, please think about donating them to St Elizabeth Hospice.


Donations of new or second-hand items are needed to resell in the Hospice’s 15 shops across Suffolk to raise funds for the charity.

If you are updating your furniture this Christmas or New Year, then why not donate your old items to the hospice too.


Donations of good quality sofas, chairs, tables, cabinets and other home furnishings are needed to resell and raise funds for the hospice which costs £6.6 million a year to run. Van drivers can collect items from homes for free, six days a week.


Fiona Browning, the Hospice’s retail sales manager said: “If you have any unwanted gifts that weren’t your cup of tea this Christmas we would love to have them in our shops. We are also in need of furniture as we have recently opened a dedicated furniture store in Felixstowe. We will come and collect if it is suitable.”


If you have furniture to donate please call  0845 259 0319.

Donations can also be dropped off at the Hospice distribution centre in Rapier Street, Ipswich, where there is plenty of parking.

Money raised through the shops enables St Elizabeth Hospice to continue to make a real difference to the lives of their patients and families, friends and carers.
