Businesses in Islington are being given an opportunity to have an office spring clean in 2011, giving their unwanted items such as chairs, desks, and stationery a new home at a local charity or small business.

Items able to be donated include good quality office chairs, desks, filing cabinets, stationery (unused reams of paper, pens, folders, file dividers etc), computers, printers, office telephones and business books.

The deadline for donating items and for registering to attend the FREE event is 5pm on 21^th January 2011.
