Kitsquad

Kitsquad was set up in 2020. The concept is very simple. Many people are willing to donate their adventure gear, much of which is considered surplus to their requirements. Many people on a low income cannot afford to buy the gear they need to enable them to get out into our beautiful countryside safely and comfortably. Kitsquad simply operates as a platform where donated kit can be collected and then gifted to low-income individuals.

Generally, too much gear ends up unnecessarily in landfill. It can take up to 1000 years for a pair of shoes or boots to break down and 400 years for clothing. We are moving away from being a throwaway society and more focus is being made on reusing and recycling where we can. Kitsquad supports this ethos.
