Our second visit to the Richmond Furniture Scheme of 2024, saw four Goodgymers turn up raring to go.
Jack in particular seemed energised having impressively run over 10k to get to RFS.
Once arrived, we were tasked by Chief Executive Simon with washing the new van, which is used frequently for picking up furniture from people’s homes who want to donate to the scheme as well as making deliveries.
Armed with buckets of foamy, water, sponges and a pressure washer we set about the job at hand.
Chris, with help from the step ladder, was successfully able to scrub the harder to reach areas, Jack proved adept with the pressure washer, meanwhile, Rosie and Adam focused on the finer details, leaving van as good as new.

Welcome to Richmond Furniture Scheme. Your local furniture recycling charity based in Twickenham, where you can find good value for money and quality second-hand furniture! Richmond Furniture Scheme is a small charitable organisation set up to help people in need by collecting donated furniture in good condition from the Richmond borough area and reusing it. A small charge is made to those people that are referred. But to ensure that all donated furniture is reused, and to help make the Scheme more self-sufficient, the Scheme is open to sell furniture to all people residing in the Richmond Borough.
