Customer Notice - Clothing Donations ‼️
Please note that the Lampeter and Llanarth Household Waste Recycling Centres (HWRC) are currently unable to accept clothing donations. This is due to the cessation of clothing bank services by the Salvation Army.
Nid yw Canolfannau Ailgylchu Gwastraff Cartref Llambed a Rhydeinon yn gallu derbyn rhoddion dillad ar hyn o bryd.
Please see the Salvation Army’s statement below for further information:
“Salvation Army Trading Company Ltd (SATCoL) operates clothing banks on behalf of its parent charity. Following a strategic review of our clothing bank network in response to changing market conditions, and to ensure long-term sustainability and responsible stewardship of donations, we are adjusting our clothing bank network. This change will enable us to use our resources more effectively to manage the unsustainable volumes of used textiles across the UK.
As part of this review, a number of clothing banks will be removed. However, many other banks remain available for public use, and we continue to expand our network of more than 250 charity stores. These changes allow us to maximise fundraising capabilities, minimise costs, and redirect resources to other impactful reuse and recycling services.
We are grateful for the continued support from members of the public, our donors and partners. We apologise for any inconvenience caused and encourage customers and donors to locate their nearest donation point and store using our easy-to-use map finder. Thank you for your understanding.”
