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.

You can have the whole sofa if you want but it really is old and saggy.
