It's the NNS season! Do something positive for the planet

With the heightened noise about climate change, it’s good to know that you can do your bit for the environment while clearing space at home with an NCT Nearly New Sale. Find out more below.

Did you know that our Nearly New Sales help reduce waste?

Alongside helping with the cost of bringing up baby, you can play your part as a parent to reduce and reuse.

Our Nearly New Sales are the perfect solution to offering affordable pre-loved baby and children’s clothes, toys, equipment and essentials. Our sales focus on high-quality second hand products at a reasonable price.

Not only are you stopping good quality clothes, toys and baby gear ending up in landfill, you’ll be doing your bit to try to limit the production of new items whose manufacture contributes to polluting the planet.

Vendors should bag a bit of extra pocket money, too, and buyers will grab some bargains at a fraction of store prices. NCT members gain early access to Nearly New Sales. Find out how to join or renew here.

Find a sale near you

It’s the seller who chooses the price, so prices can vary. But you will be surprised at the bargains up for grabs. The equally good news is that when you shop at an NCT Nearly New Sale you’re supporting our work to support even more parents. This includes supporting the 700 local activity groups for parents that are run every week, to helping us keep our reliable and trusted information up-to-date on our website.

Our network of volunteers are holding Nearly New Sales throughout the autumn and beyond. Find out if one is happening locally here.
