Daughter has a MASSIVE amount of good quality used cycling clothing she no longer needs. Most of it still has a lot of life in, but maybe has some marks etc on so isn’t obviously saleable.
She’s going to offer it to the local club, but there’s probably more than they would want.
Does anyone know of cycling based charities that would want it??
That's a very kind thought. I recently passed on a load of kit to a women's cycling project in Wigan. Whereabouts are you based?
Cyclists Fighting Cancer might be able to find a home for it?
We’re in the north of Scotland...
But TBH we’d be up to pay transport costs or arrange a drop off on a trip (when we’re allowed out!) than it either get eaten by mice in our loft or go to landfill.
There is a charity which does just this. I need to find it for me too, will report back...

I tried to use Gift Your Gear last year, but they only accept kit in September and March.
Alpkit have an all-year-round scheme, I think.

You'd be surprised with ebay. There's a big market for 2nd hand kit in all conditions - it's easy to conflate "I wouldn't buy it" and "No one will buy/need it".
There are folk who need kit but for whatever reason can't/won't buy new. As long as it's not wrecked or rank it'll sell. E.g. even a crappy windproof out the Aldi sale could cost £30 so someone will snap up a good branded one for £10 even if it's well used.
I'd be interested in finding a home for a load of cycling/outdoor kit and bike parts too. West Mids based
Having a clear out and would rather it get used than just dumped.
Not interested in ebaying it as it'll cost more to post than it'd sell for.
Any links would be brilliant.
What size is the kit? What is the kit? My daughter could do with more riding gear so if there was stuff that could fit and was going cheaper than full price, I'd probably be keen on some.
Would you have a list available please?
I sold some 20 yr old ground control shorts on eBay recently - got a tenner or so for them. Put them on there as thought the charity shop wouldn't want them and didn't want to bin them. fixed liner and all!
