A charity furniture scheme is running desperately low on stock and appealed to the public to donate their unwanted goods.


The Richmond Furniture Scheme, in Fortescue Avenue, Twickenham, said it particularly needed good quality beds, chests of drawers and wardrobes.


Joanna Gregory, secretary of the Richmond Furniture Scheme, said: “We also desperately need small things like cutlery and pots and pans to set up a moving pack for people who come out of care or have been homeless.


“We’ve got absolutely nothing here, which is causing a great deal of anxiety.


“Our focus is to help people in need, but we also need to increase the amount of bulky goods that are used rather than going to landfill.”
