THIS February, Enable Ireland is taking a cheeky twist on the Valentine’s theme.
The non-profit organisation, which provides services to over 13,000 children and adults with disabilities, is encouraging the public to declutter their homes and ‘break up with their stuff’.
Throughout February Limerick locals can ‘break up’ with their stuff by donating once-loved items to the Enable Ireland shops on Honan's Quay or 136 O’Connell Street.
Those concerned about a loss of romance need not worry!
Enable Ireland will help these items find love again when sold and all profits from items donated to Enable Ireland support their local disability services. These include vital therapy and support services.

Commenting on the campaign, Oonagh O’Connor, commercial manager at Enable Ireland said: “February is a month associated with love and romance. It’s also a time when many people choose to declutter their homes with a Spring Clean.
“This year, we’re uniting the two by encouraging the public to ‘break up’ with their once-loved items, and then fall in love with second-hand.
“We’ll help your donations find the perfect match and you’ll help raise funds to benefit our vital services!”
Members of the public can also donate to one of the charities’ 174 textile banks located across the country.
Alternatively, to any TK Maxx store nationwide, or directly into any Enable Ireland charity shop.
Enable Ireland accepts donations of clean, good-quality clothes, shoes, handbags, and accessories. They also accept towels, linens, homeware, and glassware. As well as collectables, books, loose toys and unwanted gifts.
The Enable Ireland Charity shops in Limerick offer a wealth of preloved treasure.
