Spectacles for charity?

[Sue]

I've tried googling, but not come up with anything very useful.

Does anyone know if any opticians or charity shops round here will still take old spectacles?

It seems such a waste to throw them out, but it seems that charities which used to send them abroad no longer do so.

Paine and Hunter on LL used to take them. Haven't checked recently

Specsavers took mine a year or so ago.

Paine & Hunter. They took some last week

[Sue]

Great, thanks.

Paine and Hunter is the optician on the same side of the road as The Palmerston, isn't it, not the newer one?

[Lynne]

Yes, down near the smaller St Christopher's.

[Sue]

Thanks!

That's right Sue!
