About the Project
Richmond Furniture Scheme was set up in 1992. As a registered charity (number 1133019) its aims are to:
- Make unwanted furniture available to people in need at minimal cost
- Encourage reuse and repair of furniture to reduce the amount of good furniture being sent to landfill
- Provide training and work experience to young people who need extra opportunities to make the most of their abilities
By accepting donations of unwanted good quality furniture, making small repairs when possible and making this available to Richmond residents they hope to assist those struggling to have a good quality of life.
Richmond Furniture Scheme also provides training opportunities helped by two volunteers and a permanent member of staff.
