‘Break Up With Your Stuff’: Enable Ireland Announces Ireland’s Biggest Break Up
Limerick’s Enable Ireland Shop is asking locals to join a nationwide movement to ‘break up with your stuff’ and donate pre-loved items to support vital services for people with disabilities

This February, Enable Ireland shops on Hogan’s Quay and 136 O’Connell Street, Limerick is taking a cheeky twist on the Valentine’s theme. From Valentine’s Day (14th February) to Saturday 21st February, Enable Ireland shops across the country are aiming to create Ireland’s biggest breakup.
They are encouraging the public to declutter their homes and ‘break up with their stuff’. All high-quality items donated will support Enable Ireland, which provides services to over 13,000 children and adults with disabilities.
Enable Ireland hopes that hundreds of Limerick locals will finally break up with pre-loved items that they’ve been holding on to but no longer use. Enable Ireland will help these quality items find love again when sold. 100% of profits from items donated to Enable Ireland support disability services. These include vital therapy and support services.
To soften the break-up blow, Enable Ireland Shops are also offering an extra incentive. Donors simply need to come into the shop with a donation and tell staff they want to break up with their stuff. In return, they’ll receive €5.00 off when they spend over €25 in store.
Oonagh O’Connor, Commercial Manager at Enable Ireland, said, “We all have items we know we’ve been holding onto for far too long. Clothes, accessories, and other items that are still in great condition but, if we’re honest, we know we’ll never use again. That’s why we’re asking the public to break up with them this Valentine’s!

Go through your wardrobes, kitchen presses, and chest of drawers. What may no longer have use for you could be exactly what someone else is looking for. We’ll help your donations find the perfect match, and you’ll help raise funds to benefit our vital services!”
Enable Ireland is accepting donations of high-quality items at their shops on Hogan’s Quay and 136 O’Connell Street, Limerick. 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.

As well as collectables, books, loose toys and unwanted gifts. Unfortunately, the charity cannot accept donations of electrical items, dirty or soiled items. Neither broken items, mattresses, duvets or pillows. This is due to the high cost of disposal.
