No extra expense to you, but at this time of year, because of the number of Christmas Cards sent by post, and the number of Christmas Cards given anyway, here are 2 examples of how charity can benefit!
First, used postage stamps are valuable to the Leprosy Mission (website), and you can either send stamps directly to them, or put them in an envelope and deposit this through the letterbox of the Parish Office of the Old Town Parish of St Clement & All Saints in The Bourne (back of All Saints' Hall), from whence they will be forwarded appropriately.
Second, as in most years, the Woodland Trust (website) has a 'Christmas Card Recycling Scheme', where received cards can be donated/recycled via Marks & Spencer shops in January 2015 (2nd-31st).
Please do donate your stamps and cards rather than throw them away, many thanks!
If you know of any similar recycling charity schemes, please share them.
