Register Your Appliance exists because too many used electrical goods are repaired, resold, donated or disposed of outside of our local communities. They also lack visible safety history when buying online. EEESafe® created the Appliance Repair Safety Register in 2012 to help build trust and safety for citizens, repairers and businesses in their own local communities. Local retention strengthens the local economy, gives work to independent repairers, helps people receive recall alerts, and makes it clearer what happens to an item during repair, reuse, resale or gifting.

When you register an appliance or IT product, it becomes a gateway to LocalitEEE, our built-in Community Platform. Each electrical appliance or IT item registration creates a Product Item Digital Twin, helping build a clearer record of its repair history, who did what, and whether the item may be eligible for safer local reuse through the LocalitEEE Marketplace.

EEESafe® and LocalitEEE are now also a Defra-appointed Circular Economy Pathfinder Project, one of only eight in the UK, as Government develops its Circular Economy Strategy.

We structure the UK into LocalitEEE communities of approximately 64,000 households. Each community can generate its own social, environmental and local economic metrics, while continually building PLEEECash micro-grant potential to help tackle local poverty. As more appliances, IT items, citizens, businesses and certified repairers join, the same local evidence can also build wider UK-level circular economy evidence.

Repairer certifications and training operates with three certification types. They are designed to help build safer local circular economies by allowing certified repairers to link directly to the owner of registered products. This gives repairers an advantage because they can be notified when an owner chooses to directly book a repair through our App, or gift or sell a product through our Marketplace. This helps goods and spares remain in the community and can help lower repair costs, preventing more waste.

EEESafe® DATC Certification is for White Goods independent repairers working in homes and workshops. EEESafe® DARC is for workshop-only White Goods repairers and refurbishers. This also creates a pathway for reuse centres, workshops and future EEESafe® training centres, including the forthcoming, pilot-pending EEESafe® DATq Level 2 White Goods Repair Qualification using EEESafe training materials and programme work co-developed with Graham Dixon, the Author of many Haynes DIY appliance repair manuals. Watch how it could work.

UEEESafeC reflects the founder’s previous 10-year successful £1M IT business experience, building hardware, software and networking solutions for public-sector, corporate, SME and consumer clients. It also supports a safety-based local Digital Inclusion process for citizens and businesses who Register their Companies and Products and can book a UEEESafe Repairer or use them to Gift Products Locally, where they secure data-wipe, and evidence check the safety of the item, before it’s gifted.

Our Register is the immediate starting point to deliver these services and help Certified Repairers mitigate any legal evidence of Safer Repairs.

Here’s a short video illustrating how this would happen in a more sustainable world.

To the best of our knowledge EEESafe® is the only independent Appliance Repair Safety Register in the World that combines Product Item Digital Twins, certified repairer evidence, repair history, recall linkage, a built-in local community platform with a marketplace, Digital Inclusion, local metrics and community micro-grants in one place-based model.

The Register is designed for used electrical and IT items in a local used electrical goods marketplace. It does not replace manufacturer warranties, manufacturer instructions or legal product responsibilities. Its role is different: it gives citizens better visibility before an item is sold, gifted, repaired or reused locally.

This matters because repairable White Goods, IT devices and spare parts are increasingly leaving local communities. That can remove value from local people, weaken independent repair, increase waste and reduce the chance that useful products help someone nearby. LocalitEEE helps counter this by allowing citizens to activate Registered products for sale or local Gifting, and keep more repair, reuse and resale value where they live.

For citizens, the benefit is simple. Registering an item for Free gives it a visible starting record before it needs repair, resale or Gift to the Community. It also gives the owner a reason to think about safety, reuse and local value before accepting a national take-back route, paying the Local Council or losing the item through disposal.

For Certified Repairers, Refurbishers whether Sole Traders or Registered in any of the Stakeholder Groups, the benefit is stronger local visibility and especially for Charities and Repairers, the chance to get your next Donation or Repair before anyone else. Registered products can create repair opportunity, future marketplace alerts, evidence of work and a clearer route to show competence. That matters because trusted local repair must be easier to find if repair is to compete with replacement.

For Stakeholders like landlords, housing providers, charities, reuse centres, councils, retailers and responsible businesses, the Register gives a practical way to support safer reuse and secure a. It helps product history, local repair, Digital Inclusion, spares retention and community metrics sit together rather than being scattered across invoices, emails, paper records or unconnected platforms.

For Government and policy partners, the model can evidence what usually stays hidden. Product registration, repair events, reuse activity, giftings, marketplace listings and material-retention activity can all help show how a place-based circular economy works in practice.

For IT and digital devices, UEEESafeC supports local Digital Inclusion and Digital Exclusion processes by linking refurbishment, WEEE evidence, secure data-wiping evidence and device history to the local reuse route. The aim is to keep usable donated devices local where possible, rather than sending value, data risk and repair opportunity into distant national routes and give Stakeholders the best method to receive donations directly to their businesses.

The Earth as Our Collective Garden: Resources are Not Infinite!

The Earth is our shared garden, but its resources are not endless. A good gardener does not keep throwing away tools, soil and seed; they repair, reuse, compost and protect what keeps the garden alive.

Each of us has a role to play. Head Gardeners can guide wider action across the Globe, while Local Gardeners help make practical change where they live.

Climate change, material loss and resource depletion affect everyone, creating risks to food, homes, lives and people already under pressure. Demands for Critical Raw Materials are exponentially increasing because of AI, Data Centres, Military, Education as a few examples. We can evidence the saving of Scope 3 Metrics and Materials in each of our Communities. Enjoy the competition of beating the outcomes and metrics of other communities and Register your Items. If you don’t engage then be aware Mining, Transport, Processing and Energy are adding to the damage and scarcity of Finite Resources. Keeping it Local, lowers the damage and is Government and Global Policy.

EEESafe and LocalitEEE help turn concern into measurable local action. By registering appliances and IT items, citizens support safer repair, waste prevention and carbon saving is increased, as are local repair opportunities and community benefit.

Every time you use a Certified Repairer or the LocalitEEE Marketplace, we put more Micro-Grants into your Community to help tackle Poverty.

About The model

Click on our 5 Brand Image seen here on the left which illustrates how all Components Work in Common for our Platform.

The Founder met with a Principal Investor some years ago from Centrica which on the basis that up to £2M could be given to help scale our model. He was told that if our EEECoin could be turned into into cash then there would be an interest. The offer was politely refused at a meeting in London because we wanted give profits back to the Community Members. Other Neighbourly Social Platforms usually have corporate investors who will eventually need a financial return. Here, via our model, we want communities and citizens to be the recipients. When all 6 Phases are implemented, we will be donating between 2.5 – 75% through Micro-Grants, back to the citizens in each community.

We’re launching our Trial Community In August working alongside Defra in our Sustainable Living Project. This will provide a test Phase and Metrics, that if successful, will show our potential to raise Millions on a Regular Basis when more Communities come on board. Because we’ve been building the model for a few years, we won’t need Funding. Just Engagement Through Registrations and Repairers, to self finance the model with Stakeholders Fees.

You can see in the community investors APP design that we can carry your metrics and allow you to manage the Cash and EEECoins that will flow between Community Members. They can be transferred to other Communities, who can also participate in the model, if that is your choice.

Whilst promoting Sustainability and responsible consumption, LocalitEEE creates Micro-Grants for local people and As businesses and citizens participate in using their LocalitEEE Marketplace, the money we charitably donate will be distributed locally and democratically to whom the Community Chooses. The attribution of creating it will go to individuals & businesses accordingly

How it started

That’s the Founder on the right of the picture, receiving his iSustain award which came as a total surprise to him. There’s also a video where you can see him receive the Award. But the important thing here is that this is about doing something different. This is about designing a sustainable model that puts Consumers in charge of Consumption. There are now Interventions for Citizens and Businesses who don’t want to see the Richest of Society dominating a Fairer Society. The Founders passions stem from being on the streets for a while after he left the Royal Navy. Later on, he was instrumental in setting up a Local Recycling Charity in Wales and set up Food Banks, a Cafe, Furniture and Electrical Recycling with a Large Central Warehouse and 3 Charity shops., The experience led him to a vision of a more efficient, safer sustainable circular economy model that didn’t need funding to begin.

One of the main challenges of the award was to produce something that was scaleable. He based his entry on Environmental Improvement through Safer Repair Standards of White goods and IT products, whilst also increasing safety in the home. The opportunity existed to also provide social and environmental tools to build thriving and sustainable communities where we all live, but using the Appliance Safety Register as the gateway to change.

“The Award came for Environmental Impact, but the Register could deliver many interventions not just of safety in the home, but also to prevent items from leaving the community and ensure they would reach people in need and be safely repaired conforming to the same safety standards when the appliances were first placed on the market. Certified and Qualified Community repairers and Charities could receive these donations or sales locally. This was the most cost effective and safest method of ensuring we stopped them leaving the community. Providing a free Product recall alert service gave added value and encouraged more reuse/repair, rather than receiving unwanted warranty sales calls.”
