A local charity shop is calling on you to “Break up with your stuff”.
Enable Ireland on St Kieran Street in Kilkenny city is taking part in the organisation’s nationwide campaign which asks people to donate pre-loved items which they can sell in support of the vital services they provide across the country to approx 13,000 children and adults with disabilities.
Throughout February they’re tapping into Valentine’s Day and hoping to find new loves for various high quality donations.
As an extra incentive, donors can swing by the outlet with a donation and tell staff they want to break up with their stuff and will receive €5 off when they spend over €25 in store.
Oonagh O’Connor, Commercial Manager at Enable Ireland, says; “We all have items we know we’ve been holding onto for far too long. Clothes, accessories, and other items that are still in great condition but, if we’re honest, we know we’ll never use again. That’s why we’re asking the public to break up with them this Valentine’s!
Go through your wardrobes, kitchen presses, and chest of drawers. What may no longer have use for you could be exactly what someone else is looking for. We’ll help your donations find the perfect match, and you’ll help raise funds to benefit our vital services!”
Enable Ireland is accepting donations of high-quality items at their store on 14 Kieran Street, Kilkenny. Members of the public can also donate to one of the charities’ 174 textile banks located across the country. Alternatively, to any TK Maxx store nationwide, or directly into any Enable Ireland charity shop.
Enable Ireland loves to accept donations of clean, good-quality clothes, shoes, handbags, and accessories. They also accept towels, linens, homeware, and glassware. As well as collectables, books, loose toys and unwanted gifts. Unfortunately, the charity cannot accept donations of electrical items, dirty or soiled items. Neither broken items, mattresses, duvets or pillows. This is due to the high cost of disposal.
The Enable Ireland Charity shop on 14 Kieran Street, Kilkenny, helps the public fall in love with second-hand all year round. It offers a wealth of preloved treasures. From designer clothes and handbags, to trendy shoes and accessories. They also sell classic books, beautiful homewares and more.
