Our partnership with The Savile Row Company is transforming surplus clothing into fresh starts — tackling textile waste and supporting people in need through the power of sustainable giving.

When Rosalind Bluestone launched Goods For Good in 2014, it wasn’t just the start of a new chapter for her—it was the beginning of a movement. Driven by both necessity and compassion, Rosalind took her years of experience and channeled them into a mission to help people and protect the planet. Here’s how a dining room table in Borehamwood became the foundation for a charity delivering hope across the globe.

In a time where environmental sustainability is paramount, Goods For Good volunteer, Howard Skolnick has emerged as an innovator and change-maker, championing solutions to combat waste and preserve our planet. Together with Goods For Good, Howard has spearheaded a transformative approach to waste management and sustainability. Today, we celebrate Howard's remarkable achievement as he receives an award for his contributions to waste reduction.

Goods For Good is on a mission to bring together businesses and communities, with a sustainable focus on people and the planet. Our commitment is to bring together a collective effort under the banner of recycling, repurposing, and reducing waste—for good! As we celebrate our 10th year, we are taking a bold step forward by shining a spotlight on the pressing issues of our time,  in an effort to combat climate change and protect our planet for future generations.

As the international community gathers for COP28 we're calling for a renewed focus on sustainable humanitarian practices. We want to transform the narrative beyond COP28 and create a legacy that benefits both people and the planet. 

Imagine, every time you shop for groceries, clothes, or gifts, a portion of your spending goes toward providing vital aid to those in need. Make this Black Friday green - make your purchases count in a meaningful way and turn the act of shopping into a force for good.

In an interconnected world that transcends borders, Goods For Good has harnessed the power of collaboration to carve a unique path in the landscape of philanthropy. Over the past nine years, our journey has been defined  by a commitment to building a movement rooted in kindness and compassion, creating a lasting impact on vulnerable communities worldwide.

Personalised children’s brand My 1st Years is today announcing that with every product purchased, they will support Goods For Good and clothe a child in need. This pledge of generosity is significant and will impact the lives of the people we support.  

Insurance company Aviva, luxury department store Harrods, footwear brand Dune London, clothing apparel company UNIQLO and sport and footwear brand Nike, are amongst those organisations working with Goods For Good donating money, services and overstocked goods. Their support means life-changing essentials will reach families in need in some of the world’s most vulnerable places such as Ukraine, the Middle East, Nigeria and Moldova.

The COVID-19 pandemic, cost of living and energy crisis and the war in Ukraine has caused many more families to slip into poverty. As a result we have seen our network of charity partners grow by 100% as we work hard to respond to the huge increase in need over the last two years. As the need in the community continues to grow, we have launched our Humanitarian Aid Partnership; an opportunity for corporate organisations, businesses of any size and individuals to collaborate with the charity; either by donating goods, donating funds or fundraising.
