Refurbishing furniture, reviving communities

KFR's mission is to:- refurbish furniture and white goods so that quality items are available to families with limited income- revive communities by removing unwanted items, reducing landfill and retraining people with new skills.

Why the community needs us

We recycle furniture that would otherwise be thrown away.We reuse furniture to make it affordable for low-income families. We retrain our volunteers to improve their chances of getting a job. One of our former volunteers said: "I left school with no qualifications but when I started at KFR I found I had a brain. Without KFR, I would definitely definitely be in prison. The place gave me time to adjust. The encouragement and leniency gave me stability. It gave me the chance to just level out."

Our impact on the community

Annually KFR collects 180 tons of furniture that would otherwise end up in landfill, and around 2000 households buy low cost furniture from us. Each year we support around 30 people in volunteering placements, many of whom undertake certified internal training, professional driving, vehicle operation or electrical testing training, or complete an NVQ Level 2. Around 10 people each year will gain employment as a result of the support they receive from KFR.

Volunteers needed

We have a variety of opportunities available. Please contact us for more information
