ITV has partnered with eBay and PropUp Project to dispose of their no longer required props…
eBay and PropUp Project – a not-for-profit organisation which specialises in rehoming and reselling props and other items from the film and television industry – unite with ITV for ITV ReLoved, an official eBay marketplace.
ITV ReLoved will offer fans the chance to get their hands on a wide range of props, costumes, furniture and other behind-the-scenes items from some of their favourite ITV shows, such as Coronation Street, Emmerdale, Ant and Dec’s Saturday Night Takeaway and I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!
The store provides a second life for these items while at the same time offering a simple way for ITV to reduce waste, with all ITV profits going towards charitable causes every year.
The new marketplace has launched with a variety of unique items available to buy, from Judge Rinder’s Crime Stories desk and Ant & Dec’s Saturday Night Takeaway’s Read My Lips Stool, through to Emmerdale resident Mandy Dingle’s jumper from the show’s 10,000th episode and signed stars from I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!, with items to be continually added over the coming months and beyond.
As well as the more recognisable items, shoppers will also be able to purchase everyday household goods including tableware, home furnishings and items of clothing from the wardrobe department.
Phil Holdgate, Head of Sustainability at ITV Studios:
“We are really excited to officially launch the ITV ReLoved eBay store as a way to help us reduce waste by finding new homes for items that ITV doesn’t need anymore but are way too good to throw away.
“Collaborating with great partners such as eBay and PropUp Project has been a dream: everyone has been really engaged in this idea since we first started talking about it earlier this year and the feedback has been really positive. The ITV ReLoved store also allows our viewers to own a piece of their favourite shows and, with ITV’s profits going to charitable causes, there are numerous benefits.”
