Donating unwanted items
If you no longer need an item and it's in good condition, you could give it away to someone who could use it.
How to donate items
Go to Brighton & Hove Freecycle or Freegle to list your items.

You can also download the ZeroNet app from Tech-Takeback to get your electrical items collected from your home. Goods that are working or can be refurbished or upgraded will be donated to charity. Anything that can’t be saved will be dismantled and recycled responsibly.
