Ive got some old pillows with hollow fibre and foam filling (can't do feathers as allergic) just wondering if there is any way these can be reused or recycled?
Thanks

Do you have a local animal shelter? They are often grateful for old bedding, and I imagine hollowfibre would be easier for them as it washes more easily than feathers.

wool is recycable and 100% sustainable, and you can get lovely wool pillows but make sure they carry a woolmark license to ensure quality

Stick them up in your loft - insulation for free!

You could always try Freecycle.
