Does anyone know where I can donate unopened packets of nappies

[shazza76]

I have a few packets of unopened newborn nappies that I'd like to donate to a local charity. I'm aware of the Salvation Army in Camberwell takes baby clothes and equipment, was just wondering if there's anywhere else local.

Thanks.

Southwark Day Centre for Asylum Seekers (SDCAS) would probably love them for their young families [www.sdcas.org.uk]. Super local charity with dedicated staff and volunteers.

The main office is staffed on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays and is based at the Copleston Centre.

Address:

Southwark Day Centre for Asylum Seekers,

Copleston Centre, Copleston Road, London SE15 4AN

Tel: 020 7732 0505

Thank you IlonaM. Very much appreciated. I'll give them a call.

You can also put them in the collection box at Sainsbury's for the Salvation Army / foodbank

Probably a silly question but would they accept open bags of nappies? We've had occasion where we have opened a new brand only to find the size doesn't fit. Seems such a waste to chuck them when they are only missing 1. :(

I contacted The Southwark Day Centre, the confirmed they will accept open and unopened bags of nappies.
