John Lewis & Partners
Reuse Network has been successfully running the John Lewis Sofa Reuse Scheme across all UK stores since 2014. Collecting customer takeback sofas from the John Lewis delivery hubs, Reuse Network members aim to give these items a second lease of life and pass them on to those in need. If an item is not reusable, it will be disassembled and recycled with the lowest environmental impact where possible.
Our partnership with John Lewis goes from strength to strength with fantastic items being donated to Reuse Network members every year such as ex-display kitchens, ex-display bathrooms, end-of-line stock, unwanted customer returns and more which generated around a quarter of a million in 2019 for charities in the UK.
