Learn how to set up services to collect and rehome working electricals. This guide will help users design reuse schemes that support digital inclusion, reduce waste and reach people who want to donate – but need an easy way to do it.
Between 2020 and 2025 we funded 22 reuse pilot projects across the UK, rehoming 32,900 used electricals through charities and social enterprises.
The guide draws on this UK-wide experience, with key insights from Redcar and Cleveland, Southwark and Nottingham.
The guide focuses on making donation simple, secure and visible. It includes a project checklist, cost ranges, logistics advice and examples of communications assets.
