Hi there,


I wonder if anyone might have any good ideas of places that I could donate some baby and kids items? Some of it is in excellent condition and some more used, but still with plenty of life left in it. A mixture of clothes, toys and other practical items.


I'm really struggling to find somewhere (probably due to the time of year I'm sure. I've tried women's refuges I can find and my local community centre.


Does anybody know of any refugee collections or similar happening at the moment? I really don't want to throw it away as it's nice stuff, but I need to get it out of my very small flat!


Any ideas gratefully received.


Many thanks

You could contact Southwark Day Centre for Asylum Seekers (SDCAS) [www.sdcas.org.uk]. They have a lot of mums with young children at their centres. The main office is at the Copleston Centre [tel: 020 7732 0505 (staffed Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays) or e-mail: [email protected]].


They are a super charity.

    • I've only ever had this problem in dulwich village. It was the same for Forest too.   
    • I get that bit - it's the "we all win"  bit I didn't understand if I look at world, countries I most subscribe to are the ones where taxes are raised significantly, the economy continues to thrive and the rewards lead to a fairer economic outcome - including countries where actual pension income is a lot more  https://www.almondfinancial.co.uk/pension-breakeven-index-how-does-the-uk-state-pension-compare-to-the-rest-of-europe/   but a decent social fund requires chancellor "winning"  
    • Pretty sure it’s the same everywhere in Southwark in that the area around a marked cycle parking bay is geofenced - presumably to encourage riders to use the bays.     
    • They are very funny at the Herne Hill Oxfam, for a charity book shop, about accepting book donations. Last time I tried to drop off a few bags the woman there was quite cross so I took them right back out, and I will not go back again. Definitely had this very same conversation on this forum before, including about the parking. That time I drove them over to a different charity bookshop in Streatham where - shock horror - they thanked me. And since then I've taken other books in smaller quantities to local charity shops.
