reduce, reuse, recycle

Post by Owens88 »

I know that this has been covered before but things do change and I am full of hope. Here goes.

Are there charities in the area that do house clearances, or furniture clearances ?

I was, temporarily, a network manager for a consortium of three charities in my county, in the UK. Each collected from householders proactively contacting us, and also a 'donate' stream at the 'tips'. It worked well. We were able to supply complete 'starter' kits for people in need by virtue of councils ordering us by referral from frontline charities. we also sold stuff direct to the public.

Other than Emmaus in Perpignan is there anything remotely similar in the tet valley ? We are in Vernet les Bains and I had expected Prades to have something, but i cannot find it.
