Due to a huge increase in donations and limited storage space, we are currently having to restrict what items we can take in.   Please book in your donation or call us to see whether we are currently accepting all our usual items.  

*From January 2025, we are no longer able to accept Christmas decorations as donations. Apologies for any inconvenience this may cause*

We are only able to take prams, pushchairs, cots, cribs and bouncers if they have the relevant safety and fire labels.  Please click Donations button below for further details.

About Action 21

  Action 21 is a local volunteer-based charity that aims to reduce the environmental impact of the Leamington and Warwick communities and raise awareness of the climate crisis and the benefits of sustainable living.

Re-Useful Centre

Action 21’s Re-Useful Centre saves over 100 tonnes of donated items from landfill each year by selling second hand bikes, bric-a-brac & kitchenware, tools, clothes, shoes & accessories, books, CDs & DVDs, small electrical items and small items of furniture

Volunteering

Our volunteers are key to Action 21’s continuing success. Volunteering is a great way to meet new people and develop new skills. So, why not join the team?

Sherbourne Recycling Centre, Coventry


Louise (General Manager) and Nikki (volunteer) had a tour around a new centre which is now processing all our kerbside recycling.

Sherbourne Recycling Ltd is an innovative joint partnership of eight local authorities in Warwickshire and the West Midlands to process dry mixed residential kerbside recycling in the most sustainable and efficient way possible.

Sustainability values: 
  • Nothing is sent overseas. Once sorted, the materials are redistributed to UK companies to be processed for re-use. 
  • 100% of the energy used is renewable, coming from photovoltaic cells and the neighbouring Energy from Waste (EfW) plant.
