Collecting for charity
We collect used stamps for charity
This year we are collecting used postage stamps for Parkinson's UK. Please contact Lyn to find out where to send them.
Last year we collected for RNIB who raised over £30k from donated used stamps! Please leave 1cm paper around the stamp if you can.
We are grateful to the Rotary Clubs of Barnstaple Link and Braunton Caen for their support of this project.
In the past we have also collected empty blister medication packs for Marie Curie and clothes for Gambia. Now we collect empty blister medication packs individually and take them to Superdrug stores that collect them for recycling.
