Furniture Re-use Project
 
"Tackling Poverty through Recycling "
 
 

Second Opportunities provides low cost Furniture Reuse Service aimed at helping the homeless and most disadvantaged progress into and sustain their tenancies.

The Services key aims are:

To relieve the poverty of the most marginalised sections of society through the Re-use of essential household furniture.

To provide an attractive alternative to perfectly good furniture which currently being dumped and in the process make a impact on the amount being diverted from land fill.

Help us Make Houses into Homes

To support our service users, we need a continuous supply of the following:

Lounge suites, beds, bedroom furniture, and white goods such as electric cookers, washing machines, fridges, etc.

We are a non profit making organisation and registered charity within Scotland.  The charity was established in 1992, initially supporting families in the Castlemilk area but has since grown and relocated to our new base at Broomloan Road in Ibrox.

Our Furniture Re-use Service is funded through the Increase Programme and our own fund-raising. We are a primary member of the newly formed Glasgow Furniture Initiative which aims to see a significant increase in the quantity of furniture being diverted from landfill and being made available for re-use to our target client groups.
