Statistics about the work of Essential Needs

During 2003/2004 we helped over 4,000 people to furnish or update their homes. We received and distributed almost 7,300 donations of various types of furniture and household items. We estimate that 86,000kg of material was diverted from landfill as a result of our efforts with a consequent saving on raw materials. We handled, amongst other things,110 double beds, 295 single beds, 196 chests of drawers, 339 armchairs and 253 settees.
