We are fundraising for a new Dorset Scrapstore van to better serve our community!
Can you help?
Dorset Scrapstore is a not-for-profit charity based in Alder Hills in Poole. Our store is a place where you can find all kinds of resources that can be repurposed in arts, craft and play.
We collect the majority of our materials from local donor businesses and manufacturers, saving their excess or unwanted items from landfill, and making them affordable and available for you! Our weekly collection trips have been a lot trickier due to issues with our small van.
Our current van, Rusty (pictured), is now 17 years old and no longer fit for purpose. Poor old Rusty is living up to his name and is also leaking, causing real problems with keeping our donations in tip top condition.
We are aiming to raise £10k for a larger replacement van. A long wheel base high top van would be much more reliable and cost effective, cutting down on repeat journeys and enabling us to collect donations much more efficiently.
We'd love to be able to serve our local community much better and save more surplus from landfill!
If you'd like to help us reach our goal, please do leave a donation and share our campaign. It will be so appreciated and no amount is too small! If you would prefer to donate in person or make a cash donation you can do so in store.
Thank you so much!
