THE PAD PROJECT
DON'T DUMP. DONATE!
The Pad Project UK COLLECTS and RECYCLES your unwanted hygiene medical care supplies.
About The Pad Project
The Pad Project UK is a NEW Registered Charity (Registered Charity Number 1203678), set up by the Award Winning Care Agency By Your Side, supporting individuals in the community who are living with incontinence.
At By Your Side, we support individuals in the community who are living with incontinence. We discovered very quickly the need for individuals needing support with ensuring they have enough items to support their needs and supplies when living with their incontinence.
Whilst supporting our customers we found that they often ran out of pads or items before their next allocation and had to buy extras to see them through to their next delivery.
We began to help our customers by borrowing and sharing items where we could. Doing this we also noticed that there were items not being used and started to redistribute these items to others.
Over time we have begun to collect items no longer being used and support people to source items they need. We have been a support to many individuals in the community to keep them in supplies and to be a central point for donations to be given.
In these difficult financial times and as part of our green planet pledge, we have decided to do this on a UK scale and offer this support and place to collect donations to everyone in the UK.
Notice
We would like to make it clear that the charity The Pad Project UK is a completely separate entity from the academic The Pad Project at Tampere University in Finland. Whilst Dr Chris Chatterton has been involved with both organisations, that is entirely coincidental. We see great value in their research and have many cross-over interests around continence care and sustainability. We therefore hope to discuss potential collaborative work with them in the future.
Help Us By Making A Donation
Help us by making a monetary donation to the important work we are doing on our Just Giving page. All donations go to helping to provide pads and health care equipment to improve the well-being of benificiaries.
