BPMA member Project Merchandise is an annual paying subscriber to the reuse platform A Good Thing (UK).

In a recent donation, the certified B-Corp firm which is also signed up to the BPMA’s StepForward Pledge, donated surplus stock to three UK charities. The donation included an array of useful branded items including water bottles, backpacks, and wet bags. Each item was matched to a charity where it could be put to meaningful use.

CAPE (Community Activities Project Ealing)
CAPE supports adults living with complex mental health conditions. The charity received 200 branded water bottles, which will be distributed at an upcoming wellbeing event to support community engagement and promote healthy routines.

Blaze Trails CIC
Blaze Trails runs walking groups for parents and babies, encouraging outdoor connection and peer support. The organisation received 334 branded backpacks, which are being used to equip volunteer walk leaders and assist in volunteer recruitment efforts.

YMCA
YMCA charity shops accepted 199 branded wet bags, which will be resold to help fund services supporting young people across the UK, including housing, employment, and wellbeing initiatives.

Prior to this donation, Project Merchandise have contributed a variety of surplus items through A Good Thing, reflecting an ongoing commitment to reducing waste and supporting community-focused initiatives. The platform provides a simple way for businesses to redirect excess stock where it is needed most.
