National Kidney Federation Launches New Clothing Recycling Partnership to Support Kidney Patients

The National Kidney Federation (NKF) is pleased to announce a new partnership with Mansfield Town Footwear and Clothing Ltd, aimed at increasing clothing recycling across the region while raising vital funds to support people living with kidney disease.

Through this collaboration, Mansfield Town Footwear and Clothing will host dedicated clothing recycling points, encouraging members of the public to donate unwanted garments. All items collected will help generate essential income to fund the NKF’s vital work, including patient support services such as its Freephone Helpline, Peer Support Service, and national campaigning and awareness initiatives.

Matthew Evans, Director of Mansfield Town Footwear and Clothing Ltd, said:

“We’re proud to be partnering with the National Kidney Federation on this important project. Recycling clothing is a simple action that can make a big difference—both for the environment and for people facing the challenges of kidney disease. We’re committed to supporting our community and look forward to seeing the positive impact this partnership will bring.”

Pete Revell, Head of Fundraising and Marketing at the National Kidney Federation, added:

“We are delighted to be working with Mansfield Town Footwear and Clothing on this initiative. Not only does it promote sustainable recycling, but it also provides a vital source of income that allows us to continue supporting kidney patients and their families across the area. Partnerships like this are incredibly important in helping us reach more people and deliver life-changing services.”

The partnership will roll out over the coming weeks, with further details on collection locations and opportunities for community involvement to be announced soon.
