It’s ACE being 40!

Alloa Community Enterprise (ACE) recently celebrated a landmark anniversary. ACE has now been doing good things in Alloa for 40 years.

ACE is a well-loved charity and second-hand furniture outlet, which has been giving life to preloved furniture and household goods for four decades.  Their services and programmes aim to support the people and communities of Clackmannanshire and protect the environment.

Every year, ACE diverts thousands of tonnes of furniture and small items from landfill and to do that we offer a free door-to-door collection service.

They welcome donations of most types of household furniture, and electrical appliances except cookers, you can now leave your items now at Forthbank Recycling Centre in their Donation Station container.
