Royal Trinity Hospice Sustainable September Stock Drive

Run a stock drive this Sustainable September to Support Royal Trinity Hospice

Love Wimbledon is teaming up with Royal Trinity Hospice this Sustainable September in a bid to generate much-needed clothing donations for their charity shops. We invite you to get involved by organising a stock drive within your business or workplace. It’s easy to join in and Royal Trinity Hospice will provide all the materials and guidance you need to ensure your stock drive is a success.

How to join in:

  1. Sign up to register and receive your stock drive promotional materials
  2. Promote the stock drive within your business or workplace
  3. Book in with Royal Trinity Hospice to collect the donations

Imagine how many donations you could generate in one day by asking every colleague to have a wardrobe clear-out and bring in a bag of preloved, good quality clothing and accessories to donate to Royal Trinity Hospice shops?

Why it Matters

Did you know that over a quarter of the clothes in our wardrobes go unworn for a year or more? Meanwhile, an estimated £140 million worth of clothing is sent to landfill each year. Let’s change that!

Fashion shouldn’t cost the earth. By signing up to host a stock drive this September, your preloved clothing can enjoy a second life, promoting sustainability and all in aid of a great local cause.

Royal Trinity Hospice provides free specialist palliative and end of life care to anyone who needs it across seven London boroughs. They believe every moment matters, going above and beyond for every patient. They are there from diagnosis until the end of life and continue to be there for loved ones afterwards. This year, they need to raise £13 million to continue delivering their vital care and support, with over half of this funding coming from their 22 boutique charity shops, including one here in Wimbledon. Your donations of womenswear, menswear, and accessories are urgently needed to keep these shops stocked.
