Get Involved
We’re passionate about making people’s lives better. Providing homes, furniture, and support to those who need it.
Donate Furniture
Donate your furniture and homewares to save them going to landfill and to make somebody’s house a home.
Make a Cash Donation
With poverty levels and fuel costs rising, a cash donation can help us support more people in the Highlands.

At New Start Highland, we know the importance of community and we help people within our community to get back on their feet after facing hardship by providing them with the skills they need for employment, the confidence they need to engage in their community and the goods they need to make their house a home.

We are helping Scotland move towards Net Zero
We provide furniture to those in need thanks to generous donations from members of our community that don’t need it anymore. By committing to this approach, we ensure that furniture is diverted from landfill and is instead making somebody’s house a home.
