Liphook Community Laundry
Liphook Community Laundry
Liphook Community Laundry is a charitable organisation providing a personalised service for the over 65s, infirm, or short-term incapacitated. We wash, dry & iron your laundry. The service is also available for younger people who have problems coping with their washing.
The laundry opening hours are:
Tuesday 9.00am – 12.00pm
Wednesday 9.00am – 12.00pm
We offer thorough washing services for all types of clothing and linens. Our machines are capable of handling heavy loads and delicate fabrics alike.
Our drying services ensure your laundry is dry and ready to use. We use efficient dryers to minimize waiting times and energy use.
Our team ensures your garments are wrinkle-free and neatly folded.
The laundry is located in a small building beside the Peak Centre next to the Midhurst Road Car Park.
Laundry is received in bags (available at £2 each), then washed, dried, ironed and returned at a cost of £7.50 per bag.
Our laundry operator is employed two mornings each week, and washing can be brought to the laundry room and collected by clients or their carers. Alternatively, a team of volunteer drivers offer a collection and delivery service (at no extra cost) for users who are unable to visit the laundry in person. This service typically operates on a Monday and Thursday.
The laundry was set up in 1989 by a group of Liphook residents, headed by Harry Haskell the then chairman of the Parish Council, to help those in need and to support independent living. Age Concern then ran the laundry, before funding was withdrawn in 2011. At that point, a group of local residents established the charity as we know it today.
In addition to the paid operator and the volunteer drivers a small number of other people undertake administrative roles and act as trustees to ensure the operation meets Charities Commission and other legislative requirements.
Our funding comes from the service charges supplemented by donations and subsidised services from local organisations.
If you would like to volunteer as a driver, or would like more information, please do contact us.
If you have any questions or would like to use our service, please do get in touch:
