The New Broom
Ullapool’s community shop.
Reusing, restoring and rehoming pre-loved items.
Opening hours: Monday to Saturday 10am to 4:30pm and from Easter to October we also open on Sundays 12:00 noon to 4pm
The New Broom community shop finds new homes for household items donated by the public. We also sell refills for household cleaner, shower gel and shampoo. Find us at 28 Argyle Street, Ullapool, IV26 2UB
Our welcoming, specialist team runs events in the community to repair, reuse and rehome items, restores furniture and PAT tests all electrical appliances before they appear in the shop.
Donated items to the New Broom must be clean, sellable, and unbroken. Acceptable items are listed below. The New Broom provides jobs and volunteer opportunities for the community and is a long-term project of Lochbroom and Ullapool Community Trust Ltd (LUCT). We are self-funding and reinvest surplus into local activities organized by LUCT. The New Broom promotes sustainability by reusing and restoring household items.
