Save your used postage stamps to help animals (December 04, 2008)
Now there's no excuse for
anyone of any age to be bored during the Christmas period. If you keep your used stamps and send them (minus envelope) to any number of charities who can make good use of them.
The following charities can benefit from your used postage stamps.
The Oldies
This lovely charity aims to rehome
older dogs.
Since they are often overlooked when it comes to
choosing a new pet, they tend to be more difficult to home. Many find
themselves looking for a new home because their owners have died or had
to move into a nursing home where it has not been possible to take the
pet. Please
send all stamps, UK or not, to Oldies Club Stamps, c/o 14 Colwyn Terrace, Leeds,
West Yorkshire LS11 6RB
Save the Albatrosses
The RSPB can raise money from ALL types of stamps for their Save the Albatross campaign – whether they are used or
un-used, UK, foreign or even first day covers. For example, we raise
£1.50 per kg for UK stamps and £12.50 per kg for foreign stamps
1. Post your stamps to RSPB Stamps,
PO Box 6198, Leighton Buzzard, Bedfordshire LU7 9XT. Please do not
