Action 21's Re-Useful Centre
|
The Re-Useful Centre is Action 21's second re-use shop in Leamington. It's in Sydenham, and was first opened to the public in May 2009. You can find a whole range of quality second-hand goods including: |

• Furniture - tables, chairs, sofas, wardrobes, from
nearly-new
to antiques
• Safety and functionality tested small electrical goods
like TVs, kitchen appliances and stereos
• Refurbished bicycles with a 1 month warranty.
• Second-hand books
We can help you furnish your house, find that gadget for the kitchen and even help you access affordable, environmentally friendly and healthy transport of the two-wheeled variety!
The Bicycle Workshop is now based at the Re-Useful Centre, fixing second-hand bikes throughout the week to sell at the weekend. For the best choice, come on a Friday to buy your bike!

We need volunteers!
We need your help! If you can spare a couple of hours, an afternoon or even a whole day, then come and join us in our exciting new shop.
You can help doing lots of different things like working on the cash register, sorting and furniture, pricing goods, helping customers or even just being a friendly face.
It's a busy, fun and rewarding environment to work in and it's set to get even busier as the weeks go by.
If you're interested in volunteering, come down to the Re-Useful Centre or contact Amy Footer, tel. 01926 453030.
Want to help out but don't think you have the time?

Really Useful Garden
Our team of volunteers in the Garden Gang are creating a "really useful" garden at the Re-Useful Centre, using second-hand donated items as containers and bringing a bit of life to the yard. Vegetable seeds and potatoes are going in this spring, and there'll be a raised bed too. They're even building a pop-bottle greenhouse!
