You could try asking on your local Freegle group? They can be a mine of recycling information for local stuff.

Carolyn - the web suggests either emergency services (for training / practice) or turning into hanging baskets

Thanks both. I have posted on freegle, and will see if I can get in touch with the emergency services locally too. Hanging baskets! I am going to have to google image search that! Brilliant!

If you have to bin them, cut the strap so no-one can use it.

When I did my ambulance service training we had to practice helmet removal, so the ambulance service would be a good shout.

Welcome Carolyn.

Today decided to sort some stuff out I've being boring been watching YouTube videos picking up tips and so forth

Everything has a home if its not in the home its being used. I'm not good at that.

So today. Now have a pile of stuff on my bed so before I go to bed it will be returned to its home shredded binned or in the donation bags
Clearing my 2 living room tables apart from what's necessary.

Better get cracking

".... This month, each of you must get rid of one thing on the first day. On the second, two things. Three items on the third. So forth, and so on. Anything can go! Clothes, furniture, electronics, tools, decorations, etc. Donate, sell, or trash. Whatever you do, each material possession must be out of your house—and out of your life—by midnight each day."
