chair (Upton CH49)
2d
- It's not in great condition, but might be a good renovation project is it's a hobby you have? Collect tomorrow morning (Tuesday 30th) or in 10 days (around May 11th)
Free:
small table (Upton CH49)
4d
- Not in perfect condition but quite sturdy and has shelf underneath
Free:
sofa (Upton CH49)
4d
- dusky pink, velvety, could probably do with a clean. Apologies for the photo as it is currently covered in boxes, but hopefully you can get the idea!
Free:
old white chest of drawers (Upton CH49)
Promised
4d
- 4 drawers, Quite old, but might be fine when painted. Third drawer down has missing handle.
Free:
Chinese tea mug (Upton CH49)
4d
- Small chip on the side that you probably wouldn't drink from.
Free:
surgical boot (used) (Upton CH49)
9d
- This is a bit of weird one, but I broke my ankle a couple of months ago and was told to wear this for 6 weeks then throw it away. This seems a terrible waste, so I thought I would offer it just in case it was of any use to someone with an ankle injury who hadn't been given a boot like this. My ankle is pretty much OK now!

documents about autism and running a charity (Upton CH49)
9d
- I think this may be a bit unlikely, but I know we're encouraged to post anything just in case! (and I hate thowing anything away) I have some (not very big) bundles of papers about 1) provision for people with learning difficulties 2) community care 3) managing voluntary organisations / being a trustee / fundraising 4) magazines from the 2010's - "Autism" and its predecessor "Communication". (pictured) 5) Videos about autism (and I mean videos, not DVDs!) 1-4 are earlier, from 70s-90s remaining from when my parents (with other parents) ran a local charity for adults with autism. You could have any or all bundles ...

mattress (Upton CH49)
Promised
14d
- Quite old mattress, but quite firm and comfortable
Free:
wardrobes (Upton CH49)
Withdrawn
18d
- One has a broken handle and is a bit flimsy. The brown one doesn't have a key. The white one without the broken handle is probably the best! I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to help to carry them downstairs, as I have had a broken shoulder, and still not supposed to lift anything heavy! No need to take more than one, unless you would like to!
Free:
filing cabinet (Upton CH49)
Gifted
23d
- Quite old, but might be useful e.g. in a garage?
Free:
Desk (Upton CH49)
Promised
23d
- Quite old. I can't get the bottom right-hand drawer to open, but my arm isn't that strong so you may be able to fix it, in which case you would be very welcome!
Free:
dishwasher (Upton CH49)
Promised
23d
- It is very old, but the last time I used it, it worked fine. I think you would need to know how to disconnect it and stuff though, as I am afraid I don't...
Free:
Keys (Upton CH49)
Withdrawn
24d
- I don't know what any of these keys are for, but I do remember somebody asking once for keys to make jewellery out of, so thought I would post just in case.

Free:
mirror (Upton CH49)
Gifted

Free:
2 wardrobes (Upton CH49)
Expired
221d
- Available separately or together. Not perfect - white one has broken door handle. Brown one has lost keys (but doors don't actually swing open). If you don't mind these disadvantages, you are welcome :-). Would need to be collected as we haven't a car and can't drive. Would also need to be carried downstairs, unfortunately previous injuries prevet us carrying heavy things. Apologies!
Free:
TV stand (Upton CH49)
Gifted
221d
- Old but still works. 31 inches wide, 14 1/2 inches deep. Would need to be collected, as we can't drive amd don't have a car. Photos from front and side - it's being used as shelving at the moment but the items will be removed!

Free:
selection of glasses (Upton CH49)
Expired
227d
- I'm afraid none of them match, but if you don't mind that, you are welcome! I'd like to give them as one set (even thought they're not a set) so if you wanted some but not all, you might give the ones you didn't want to a charity shop?
Free:

lamp for slide projector (Upton CH49)
Gifted
237d
- I realise it's unlikely that anyone even has a slide projector now, but just in case, this seems to be unused, though there's always a risk it might not work after many years. I don't want to bin it until I'm sure it's not useful!
