It is my personal mission as charity manager is to offer assistance to anyone with a disability, and also stop the waste of NHS products which are ending up in landfill for no reason. In 2022 Skiggle saved £2M of medical products ending up in landfill, hence saving our very precious NHS money.
Skiggle is a unique charity and community, which exists to provide help and support to disabled people, their families, and carers across the UK. With Skiggle, life always comes before the disability.
We’re the only disability charity of its kind in the UK dedicated to helping people with disabilities when they need it most.
We fund and operate a unique 24/7 SOS emergency alert service and run an online marketplace where people can safely rehome and distribute disability care products and equipment.
SOS alert service
Our website connects to an emergency SOS alert system where members can put out a call for urgently needed care essentials. Completely free of charge, Skiggle facilitates and filters each request out to members within the closest geographical area to the SOS in the hope that someone can provide help from their own surplus supply of disability care products. Make sure you give us your mobile number to use this service.
Marketplace
The Skiggle online marketplace is a safe, fully regulated place where disability and care products can be rehomed and distributed free of charge and specific larger items can be bought and sold as appropriate. For your safety and the safety of others, you will be asked to agree to our terms and conditions relating to the movement of products when signing up.
