♻️ Recycling in Ottery is one of the loveliest community‑driven spots in town, giving pre‑loved items a second life and keeping useful things out of landfill.

Everything they sell is donated, affordable and part of a circular economy that supports local people. All profits go straight back into Ottery, helping fund projects, causes and those who need a little extra support.

If you’re passing, pop in, it’s a brilliant place to find something unique and do a bit of good at the same time.
