The eight volunteers who braved the chilly weather were rewarded with a fine winter's morning. Lucy from the furniture scheme deputised for Simon as our contact point and after chatting to her in the yard with the sun beaming down we got to work on giving the outdoor space a tidy. Then we headed into the main shop floor to move customer purchases into the collection room. A few items caught Suze's interior design eye but alas they'd already been snapped up. Victoria was joining for her first GG task.

At the end of it we headed to a café near Twickenham Green for a coffee and slice of cake.

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.
