How it will work - Background
Newlife Art is an operation run by Newlife Trading Ltd which raises funds for the Newlife Foundation for Disabled Children which helps disabled children all over the UK. Newlife Trading Ltd has a main operation in recycling goods donated to benefit the charity. As a result of this recycling some goods are sold at the Cannock Superstore while others are passed to third party reclamation recyclers. In processing these goods some items are found which can be identified as being suitable for creative crafts. Access - Newlife Art will be very easy to access. Once you, as an art teacher or tutor, are registered with our website you will be able to view goods which will be available to you in the following ways:
- The Freebies - goods which are free of cost which you can reserve online and then arrange to collect.
- The Colour Range textiles which are packed into separate colours in a large bag providing assorted textures. These are priced per bag.
- The Sparklies Range broken jewellery which has been packed into separate mixed bags. These are priced per bag.
- The Fiddlies Range sequines, buttons etc which have been packed into separate bags . These are priced per bag.
- The Multi’s Range these are goods which we suddenly have available and are usually all the same e.g. 30 pairs of jeans for decorating, 30 hats to rework, 100 plain t-shirts to use in design work, purses, bags, gloves and much more. These will be unloaded as and when available. These are often free or very cheap.
- The Special Supply Range odd items which are not covered by the other ranges and which are not a multiple e.g tins of sample paints, consignment of felt tips, supply of ribbons or braiding. Mobile phone covers to decorate, silk flowers, mixed headbands or hats to embellish etc .
