Find a textile recycling bank
Donate any unwanted clothes, textiles and shoes that are clean at banks around Islington.
When donating items:
- put them inside a plastic bag or put them in the bank as loose items
- put shoes into a bag or tie them together as a pair
- take duvets and pillow fillings out of bed sheets, duvet covers and pillow cases

We have partnered with fashion reuse charity TRAID to provide free textile collections. This stops clothes from being incinerated or going to landfill and gives them a new life. Your donated clothes will be sorted and sold in one of TRAID's charity shops.
