    Go on your local area Facebook page and ask if anyone giving any away or some charity shops deal with second hand white goods.

    Look at your local Freecycle or Freegle websites.

    As above, Facebook, Freecycle etc. can be a good start, along with Gumtree.
    Also, I don't know how widespread they are, but near us there's a big British Heart Foundation shop that does furniture and white goods, we've bought quite a few things from them over the years.  It's always been good quality, a fraction of the price of buying new, plus you're helping a good cause to boot :)
