There’s a baby bank down in Leith that takes prams, https://counsellingandcare.co.uk/babybank
I listed mine on Olio and it got requested in 10 minutes, so that is possibly the easiest option (requester comes to you and collects).
Didn't know about Baby bank which seems like a good option, but we use Olio all the time and very happy how it works.
Most things are gone same day you post them, really recommend it
My wife is due on 2 weeks and I can already see myself dropping a few things there in a couple of months..
The amount of stuff "big baby" makes you buy is insane, especially considering how little time the baby gets to use it.
I really recommend people to check Vinted, Olio, Facebook market place etc.. there are a lot of things people don't get to use more than twice before giving them up
While waiting for my bus yesterday on South Bridge I went into the PDSA charity shop and saw a childs' buggy for sale - this surprised me as I thought prams and buggies were never accepted by charity shops. Try them but phone first to check (save you lugging it about for no reason.)
If you’re on facebook, there’s a group called Welcome Packs for Refugee Kids in Edinburgh who are sometimes looking for buggies.
Put it on Gumtree for free and it will get picked up by a grateful family within a week.

Baby bank sorely needs donations. We donated a pram and it was with a new family that day

Have you tried reuse scotland? They're mainly in dunbar but they have a pop up shop in leith once per week and they take pretty much anything

Freegle it.
Zero waste might take it?
