“Waste Not, Want Not” Shop

In the UK, approximately 350,000 tonnes of clothing end up in landfill each year, representing a significant amount of waste.

Our ‘Waste Not, Want Not’ shop isn’t just about improving financial health — it’s also about being environmentally conscious.

There are lots of reasons we no longer need activewear and equipment before it’s truly worn out. Our bodies change, our interests change, sometimes things just aren’t for us — and in the case of kids, they grow up fast.

The ‘Waste Not, Want Not’ shop aims to encourage the reuse of good-condition secondhand items (some brand new with tags) before buying new, where possible. We also hope that by making these items accessible to everyone, we’ll encourage more people to get active.

Many of our items are FREE.

Some ask for an honesty box donation. Donation amounts are anonymous, and all contributions go towards the running costs of our hub.

It’s good for your pocket and your planet.

Pop in and have a look during our open times, or DM us if you spot something in our pictures — we can arrange a time for you to collect it.

Donations of good-condition items are always welcome. Any excess will be passed on to other local groups and charities.

Here are a few items we currently have in stock:

1. Kids’ Wetsuit (Age 7-8 years)

Honesty Box Donation

2. Ladies’ Nike Trainers (Size 5.5)

Honesty Box Donation

3. Ladies’ Leggings (Various Sizes)
