Booking appointments for donation drop-offs
St Michael’s Hospice is extremely grateful to everyone who donates their pre-loved items for them to sell on their eBay shop, or across their seven high street shops in Hastings and Rother. If you plan to donate your items, please remember to give them a call beforehand on 01424 728728 to book a donations drop-off appointment at their Donation Centre. The appointment line is open from 10am – 2pm, Monday to Friday. By doing so, the Hospice can ensure the Retail team is ready to assist you with your donations and not block the limited space available in and around the Donation Centre. Without a prior appointment, the team will not be able to accept your generous donations.
If you’re having a 2023 clear-out, the Hospice is currently in need of excellent quality furniture and would appreciate any items you may wish to give. By donating your pre-loved items you are helping St Michael’s Hospice to support and enable the community of Hastings and Rother to live well with dying, death, and loss.
