Donating items to our shops

Turn your pre-loved goods into re-loved and help create an equal future with disabled people. 

Your pre-loved things can do so much more than sit on a shelf. When you donate to Scope, the money raised could: 

  • fund a call to Scope’s Helpline, offering vital help and support to a disabled person when they need it most. 
  • support a disabled jobseeker to get their next role 
  • move us all towards an equal future with disabled people. 

We believe an equal future is possible, but it’s going to take all of us. You can find out more by reading An Equal Future is Possible.

  • 3 Bags (£45)

    Can fund a 60-minute call, helping to resolve urgent, complex problems.

I'd been so stressed for months because of my Personal Independence Payment (PIP) application. My Scope helpline adviser was extremely friendly, down to earth, so helpful, and broke his advice down into simpler chunks so I wasn't overwhelmed. He gave me good tips for completing my PIP form, and advised I could ring back at any time to go through my answers. He also sent me an email with helpful links to guides. I am very impressed and so wish I had heard of Scope before. It's a huge relief that I can access their help now.
