Don’t dump it, donate it!๐๏ธ
Leave Liverpool Tidy is a city-wide project, making it easier for you to donate, not dump, your unwanted items throughout the year.
From donations to swap shops and litter picks to support your community, there are lots of ways you can get involved with the project and help leave our city shining.
The Big End of Year Clear Out๐ฆ
The time has come to start thinking about clearing out your houses/halls/rooms and getting ready for your next step, whether that’s moving down the road or taking the leap to a new adventure. We're here to to help make your clear out a little bit easier – and more sustainable!
Working alongside John Moores Students' Union, British Heart Foundation and Fareshare, we provide donation points and initatives for you to transform your trash into someone else's treasure.
