About us
Who we are
Resurrection Trading (known as Resurrection Furniture) is a charity specialising in recycling furniture and home goods. We opened in Alton in 2017 and last year moved to larger premises at 21b High Street. The charity is linked to the Parish of the Resurrection. All profits from the shop go to good causes in Alton, especially to support youth related projects, families and individuals in need.
The shop is a busy, friendly place supported by a skilled team of repairers in the workshop and a lively band of drivers and lifters on the van. In total we have more than 50 volunteers and the charity is led by a team of Trustees.
