Dorset Reclaim Poole

The principle aims of Dorset Reclaim are to provide household items to those in need within the local communities throughout Dorset and West Hampshire.
We provide local residents & organisations with a free collection service of good quality items. In the last ten years we have helped over 24,000 families, collecting from more than 43,000 homes, with in excess of 100,000 items being donated to date.

Dorset Reclaim is all about people, and the further aim of the project is to provide opportunities for members of the community to help in the day to day running of the organisation. We are dependant on a voluntary workforce, with a variety of jobs on offer and hours to suit most individuals.

Dorset Reclaim began in 1998 and since then we have been fulfilling our aims and objectives by:
• Supplying low income families with good quality furniture, electrical and household goods.
• Providing training and volunteering opportunities to help develop work and social skills.
• Encouraging local people to re-use and recycle, thereby reducing the amount going to landfill.
