Give your old kit a second chance at The Nest

Did that New Year’s resolution to get fit not quite go to plan? Is that yoga mat still rolled up in the corner, or are those dumbbells gathering dust?

Or maybe your kids have already outgrown the football boots and running tops you bought just a few months ago?

Instead of letting them sit unused, why not give them a second lease of life by donating them to The Store.

Your donations will help others get active and support sustainability in sport. Every purchase from The Store will directly contribute to the Community Sports Foundation‘s life-changing programmes, helping people across Norfolk access opportunities to thrive.  

What we’re looking for:

Anything and everything sport related! From old outgrown football boots to shin pads gathering dust, hockey sticks to tennis rackets, running tops to football shirts no longer in use, ski jackets to wet suits – the options are limitless!  Your items can make a difference. 

We accept the following across all, and any, sport: 

  • Sports Kit (e.g., boots, shirts, shorts, tracksuits, wetsuits) 
  • Equipment (e.g., balls, gloves, cones, mat, bats, surfboards!) 
  • General activewear and leisurewear 

All donations should be clean and in good condition. 

Why your donations matter:

By donating, you’re contributing to more than just recycling – you’re investing in our community’s future. The new retail space will: 

  • Promote sustainability by reducing waste and giving gear a second life. 
  • Support community programs across Norfolk, helping people of all ages access sport and wellbeing opportunities. 
  • Make sports more accessible by offering affordable kit to local families. 

How to donate: 

Drop off your donations at The Store anytime during opening hours. We will need to record a few details for gift-aid purposes. It’s that simple!  

Together, we can create a sustainable, inclusive future for our community – one donation at a time. 

The Store opening hours: 

Monday – Friday | 11am – 7pm

Saturday | 9am – 3pm

Sunday | Closed

Please note, The Store will open on event days and Norwich City Women FC home matches.
