Testimonials from good causes
“I would just like to say thank you on behalf of Multi Organ Transplant Support: M.O.T.S to Collecteco for your donations of office furniture and equipment. We have been able to sell these in our charity shop to raise funds so we can continue to provide support to our members and so far we have raised £1,200!
This is an amazing amount of money for our charity, and this will go towards providing Hospital packs for our members who are going through their transplant journey. We can also provide our Hug in a Box to multi-visceral patients who are in hospital to let them know that they are being thought about and are not alone. Thank you Collecteco for everything.“
“Would just like so say yet another big thank you to Collecteco. We are a small secondary school who have recently been fortunate enough to have some major redevelopment work carried out. Unfortunately the budget did not stretch to furniture which is where Collecteco have been a lifesaver. From kitting out offices with desks and chairs; workshops with racking and shelving and now fitting out a whole classroom, including teachers desk, I do not know what we would have done without you. One very happy teacher and one happy Site Manager who can now spend his budget elsewhere! Thank you!“

“Our District (Cwmbran and Pontypool) Scout Shooting Club will be making use of these items to support the provision of air rifle / pistol shooting for young people in and around Torfaen.
The tables are the ideal size for individual shooters to be self-contained with all of the equipment they need to take part. This allows more freedom with social distancing to help make these activities Covid safe in the short term, while allowing for easier transport for events etc. long term as well!“
