TCL RE USE

We prevent items going to landfill and in turn are able to provide furniture, white goods and household items to the general public and to those on a low income at significantly reduced prices. We also work with a wide variety of agencies to seek to help those who are struggling to help themselves. Part of this is providing free furniture to referred at risk families.

Analysis by Giving is Great
