Covering the whole of the High Peak area it was set up in 1997 when it became obvious of the serious need for a charitable project of this nature.</strong></span></p> 255<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><strong> </strong></span></p> 256<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Those it helps are referrals from social services, housing charities, women’s refuges and many other local organisations who support individuals and families in need. During 2019-202
2560 the Project supported over 150 households by providing free Emergency Packs of furniture and everyday essentials to those who have been homeless and given a new tenancy where the property has none of the necessary items. Depending on need, a basic pack can consist of a bed, sofa, chest of drawers, wardrobe, fridge, bedding, crockery, microwave, kettle and toaster to help set up their new home.</span></p> 257<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 16px;"> </span></p> 258<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 16px;">The Project is the only voluntary organisation within the High Peak offering such a service and is in constant demand. It is seen by the statutory and voluntary agencies who use the Project as a lifeline for their service users. Such is the demand, requests for the Project’s assistance have been received nationally from well beyond the High Peak region it serves.</span></p> 259<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 16px;"> </span></p> 260<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 16px;">As a charity, fundraising is on-going - <em>because the need is always there</em>. Relying on the donations of unwanted furniture and household items to maintain its stock, the Project reclaims, restores, refurbishes and upcycles furniture for sale. Its premises at Pikes Lane and George Street are open to the general public for the purchase of used and pre-loved furniture which goes towards the charity’s funds. With a growing trend in retro decor, the Project’s dedicated specialist furniture painting workshop is kept busy. This not only helps fund the charity but also benefits the local environment by diverting over 100 tonnes annually of good, usable furniture, from the waste stream.</span></p></div></div></div></div><div class="page-row"><div style="width:20.833333333333%;" class="page-item page-item-type-image"><div class="page-item-inner"><div style="height:196.46875px;" class="page-item-content"><img src="/media/images/user-images/42275/scaled/134x189-GFPfrontcover2024-25.png" /></div></div></div><div style="width:4.1666666666667%;" class="page-item"></div><div style="width:50%;" class="page-item page-item-type-content"><div class="page-item-inner"><div style="height:117.59999084473px;" class="page-item-content"><p> </p> 261<p><span style="font-size: 13px;"><strong> </strong></span></p> 262<p><span style="font-size: 16px;"><strong><span style="font-family: Arial;">Read our Annual Report</span></strong></span></p> 263<p> </p> 264<p><span style="font-size: 15px; font-family: Arial;">Click on the image alongside to read an online copy of our Annual Report for 2024 - 2025 or <a title="GFP Annual Report 2024 - 2025" href="/media/other/42275/GFPAnnualReport2024-25.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>click here</strong></a> to view a PDF version.</span></p></div></div></div><div style="width:25%;" class="page-item"></div></div></div></div></div> </div> 265 266 267 <div id="below_content" style="display:none"></div> 268 269 <div style="clear: both;"></div> 270 271 </div> 272 273 </div> 274 275 </div> 276 277 <div id="footer_wrap"> 278 279 280 <div id="footer_links_wrap"> 281 <div id="container_03" style="max-width:100%;width:892px;position: relative;margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"> 282 <div id="footer_bar"> 283 <div id="footer_links" ><a href="https://www.glossopdalefurniture.co.uk/">Home</a></div> 284 </div> 285 </div> 286 </div> 287 288 289 <div id="footer_text_wrap"> 290 291 <div id="container_04" style="width:892px;position: relative;margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"> 292 293 294 <div id="footer_text" > 295 <p><span style="font-size: 14px;" data-mce-style="font-size: 14px;">Glossopdale Furniture Project Ltd l Registered Charity No: 1118353 l Company limited by guarantee No: 5541653</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style="font-size: 14px;" data-mce-style="font-size: 14px;">Supported by Derbyshire County Council, High Peak Borough Council, Foundation Derbyshire, The Hobson Charity, The Wakeham Trust, The National Lottery Community Fund, Clothworkers Foundation, Bingham Trust and Garfield Weston Foundation.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: 14px;" data-mce-style="font-size: 14px;"><strong>Glossopdale Furniture Project is part of Reuse Network</strong></span></p><p><br></p><p><span style="font-size: 14px;" data-mce-style="font-size: 14px;"> </span></p><p><span style="font-size: 14px;" data-mce-style="font-size: 14px;">Warehouse & Showroom: Pikes Lane, Glossop (01457 857505) Open: Monday - Friday 09.00 am - 4.30 pm / Saturday 10.00 am - 4.00 pm</span></p><p><span style="font-size: 14px;" data-mce-style="font-size: 14px;">Shop: George Street, Glossop (01457 860738) Open: Tuesday - Friday 09.00 am - 4.30 pm / Saturday 9.00 am - 4.00 pm</span></p><p><br></p> </div> 296 297 <div id="hit-counter-box" style="clear:both;"> 298 <table width="116" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" align="center"> 299 <tr> 300 <td colspan="8" align="center" style="padding-top: 6px;">
