Ethical Fundraising Through Recycling Textiles

Over £10 Million Raised for Good Causes | Proudly Registered with the Fundraising Regulator since 2018

At Roberts Recycling Ltd, we believe fundraising should be ethical, impactful and accessible for schools, charities, councils, community organisations and businesses across the UK.

That’s why we’re proud to be long-standing members of the Fundraising Regulator – the UK’s independent body that promotes the highest standards in charitable fundraising. Our commitment to transparency and compliance is at the heart of how we support our partners through textiles recycling.

How We Support Our Partners to Fundraise: A Trusted Model That Delivers

We operate one of the UK’s most established and successful textile recovery fundraising solutions – helping thousands of organisations raise funds through the collection of unwanted clothing, shoes and accessories.

In the past year alone, our collections have helped raise over £2.5 million for charitable causes, and to date, our fundraising partners have earned a collective total of more than £10 million.

Our programme is built on ease, efficiency, and integrity – and is completely free to join. Over 2,000 schools, charities and businesses currently take part in clothing collections with us.

  • Trustworthiness for over 2,000 schools, charities and business partners

We follow the Fundraising Code of Practice, meaning:

  • We’re committed to clear, honest communication
  • We protect the rights and preferences of supporters
  • We offer added assurance to every school, charity and organisation we work with
