Old smoke detectors (Gracemount EH16)
Not for keeping people safe, for trees, so don't worry about the condition! We can fix them up, and they don't have to be 100% reliable. We have a 'kids burning things' problem at our community garden, and are rigging up a smoke detector system so we get alerts when there's a fire. All old smoke detectors will be loved and appreciated by us :)

Sofa cushions (Duddingston EH15)
Can anyone use some sofa cushions? The frame is old and going to the tip but we replaced all the cushions 2 years ago so they could last a good few more years. Replacement cushions were from Advanced Upholstery Services in Prestonpans. 2 seat cushions are approx 70cm square. Back ones are 90cm at widest point, 68cm at narrowest point, 50cm high. You can have the whole sofa if you want but it really is old and saggy.

LARGE BUBBLE bubble wrap (Bellevue EH7)
Hello, I am looking for bubble wrap. However it MUST BE bubble wrap with LARGE BUBBLES. In other words the bubbles would be near the size of a 50p coin rather than a 1p coin. I will need around 20 to 25 meters of it depending on the width of the roll. I know this is a big ask bit if you have some bubble wrap with LARGE BUBBLES to spare or that you want to get rid of it WILL help me out with a project. Thank you in advance.

Plastic greenhouse (Craiglockhart EH14)
Used it this year. Not planning to grow the same stuff next year. Doesn't have shelves so good for tall things like cucumbers and tomatoes. The top has a tendency to fill with water so I'd pierce it and let water in to your plants. I've not done this. There are also 2 areas where the plastic has pulled from the seams but would repair with duct tape. All parts there including pegs to hold it down. Dismantled. Would be useful over winter for frost protection.
