Don’t let your rejected items end up abandoned on streets or in landfills, where they can sit disintegrating and damaging our environment. Reach out to Get Rid Of and Donate, arrange a free collection for your unwanted goods and help us be there for everyone who needs us.

Please note that this community mission has been cancelled.

Get Rid Of & Donate is a Lambeth-based group who repurpose people's unused stuff! We've helped them wrap books and toys for kids' Christmas presents and recently been packing bags of essentials for rough sleepers.

Now is the time to distribute those bags!

The meeting spot is outside Zimbabwe House on The Strand at 7pm. Usually people come up and take any clothes they need as well as a bag of essentials.

Please bring: 🤿 Mask 💦 Hand sanitiser 🧤 Gloves

Andrea who will be there to explain what to do has advised on bringing minimising personal belongings. She will give us a briefing when we arrive but of course don't do anything you don't feel comfortable with!


How are you getting there?

Hi guys, Really sorry for the late notice but this has now been cancelled. Unfortunately Andrea from GROAD is unable to get access to the storage to get the bags and clothes in time for this evening. This will however be rescheduled for sometime next week. Keep your eyes peeled for that.
