Circular Communities Scotland is pleased to share our Reuse Consortium member Cunninghame Furniture Recycling Company’s 2026 Social Impact Report.

Cunninghame FRC has been a member of the Reuse Consortium since 2019, selling quality–assured reused furniture and mattresses to North Ayrshire Council with support from the Reuse Consortium’s unique business model.

Our award-winning Reuse Consortium offers our members the opportunity to sell refurbished white goods and furniture to Local Authorities, Housing Associations and other public sector organisations, without the need to go through a tendering service.

Thanks to their partnership, North Ayrshire Council is able to provide essential household items to its tenants at a lower cost than buying new, helping them to support more families as well as to reduce waste going into landfill.

Cunninghame FRC has released its social impact figures from 2025 – 2026.
