Give Help

Textile Recycling Centre

Help the foodbank by donating your unwanted clothing, shoes, and textiles.

In order to raise much-needed funds, our volunteers help us to run a textile recycling centre here at our Food bank Hub in Love Lane, Cowes.

Why

Our Textile Recycling Centre is fundamental in raising funds to assist with the operational costs of running the foodbank, such as the foodbank van which collects and delivers food to our 5 centres.

How to buy

We have a Monthly clothing sale called Fashion into Food (click for 2025 dates) on the first Saturday of the month between 10am-12pm. Here you will also find Tea, Cake and a Tombola!

How it works

Members of the public kindly donate unwanted items of good-quality clothing.

Donations can be dropped off at our Foodbank Hub in Love Lane Cowes, on Monday, Wednesday or Friday mornings between 9am – 2pm.

These donations are then sorted by our team of volunteers, ready to be sold at our Textile Recycling Centre.

What to Donate

We are grateful for donations of:

  • Mens and Ladies Clothing (Good quality please)
  • Vintage Clothing and Accessories
  • Jewellery
  • Shoes
  • Handbags
  • School Uniform
  • Prom wear / wedding dresses

          Thank you!
