Did you know that approximately 9.8 million tons of furniture go to waste every year?
But it doesn't have to be this way:
• Through donations we can combat this waste of perfectly re-usable furniture.
• We are always accepting donations, just ring 0113 270 4005.
Since last week we've began accepting drop-offs again.
You can arrange to drop off any unwanted furniture to any of our shops by ringing 0113 270 4005. More information: slateleeds.org.uk/donations
