Head to our Sunderland charity shop to donate unwanted items, volunteer your time or see what's on offer.

We sell (and collect) a wide range of second-hand furniture, including some electrical and white goods – as well as clothes, books and more.

If you'd like to donate some furniture, give us a call on 0191 567 1745. We'll even come and collect it from your home for free. Please be aware that there are some items we can't accept, such as damaged goods, dishwashers and washing machines.

How your donation makes a difference

By donating unwanted, good quality furniture to our Sunderland shop, you're helping to fund our vital work and standing with families facing homelessness.

All donations can be gift aided, at no extra cost to you, helping us raise even more.

Our house clearance service

We offer a sympathetic, professional house clearance service that's here to help you.

We offer both a full house clearance service (chargeable) and a part house clearance for free. To arrange a clearance service, give us a call on 0191 567 1745. We'll ask for your address and whether you'd like a full or partial clearance service.

We can then arrange a day and time for our helpful team to visit and pick up all good quality items for free.

Do you want to Gift Aid your donation?

Shelter can claim Gift Aid on your donations, so when you say yes to Gift Aid, we can claim an extra 25% of the value of your sold item/s from HM Revenue and Customs. This means we can raise more money from your donations at no extra cost to you*.

By joining the Gift Aid scheme, I agree that I want to Gift Aid my current donation and any donations I may make in the future or have made in the past four years to Shelter. I am a UK taxpayer and understand that if I pay less Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all my donations in that tax year it is my responsibility to pay any difference. I will notify Shelter (Trading Ltd) of any change in my personal circumstances, such as name and address, or that I no longer pay UK Income or Capital Gains tax, or I wish to cancel the declaration. Read Shelter's full retail Gift Aid and agency agreement terms and conditions.

If you've already told us you want to receive updates, we'll keep contacting you in the same ways. And don't worry – although Shelter, Shelter Scotland and Shelter Trading activities will use your details, we will never pass them on to third parties for marketing.
