There used to be one next to the Mind shop at the Goose Green roundabout - not sure if it’s still there… Can’t think of one nearer other than remember vague talk about there being ones in the car park on Peckham Rye? St Chrisopher’s charity shop on Lordship Lane also take bags for ragging. Hope you find one!

the two clothing banks beside the mini-supermarket at the junction of Upland Road and Hindmans Road have disappeared.

 

 

I'm not surprised.


I once saw two women pulling stuff out of them and just leaving it on the pavement (presumably after taking what they wanted).


I take clothes which aren't good enough for a charity shop to sell to the hospice shop in a bag clearly marked "rags".


They recycle them somewhere, can't remember where.

Is there a reason you can't donate to a charity shop? We have 3 or 4 on Lordship Lane.


Alternatively Traid (they have a branch in Peckham) will come and collect from you.


If the clothing is too tatty to sell on many charity shops will accept it sorted into separate bags as "rags" which they get paid for (as Sue said earlier in the thread).


The recycling centre on Old Kent Road also accepts fabric recycling, goes without saying.

The quality of stuff in charity shops is generally quite high and the quality of anything I'm throwing away is generally quite low, so I had assumed charity shops wouldn't want it. Perhaps I should sort it again.


The BHP shop on the Old Kent Road took away more than a dozen bags of clothing when my husband died but that was relatively good stuff.

I looked up Tvind on Wikipaedia, thanks for the reference.

    • I know the couple you mean, and she has always been friendly and smiley when delivering to me, but obviously in a hurry, for all the reasons outlined in the thread. My gate is always open, however (unless someone coming to the house closes it when they leave). I can't see the point of gates that have to be opened and shut again every time someone comes to the house. It just seems a waste of time, and it's annoying if you are carrying stuff. And a closed gate  conveys a sort of "my house is my fortress" feel. To me, anyway.
    • Thanks for posting this. Really interesting. It would be good if you added a star rating, so that it was easier to do comparisons / see what your top recommendations are. Great blog though!
    • Hi, Just a quick note to say it's six months since I launched Eats Dulwich. In that time I've reviewed 28 restaurants. Usually four or five a month except for a month when I came down with gout, which I guess is an occupational hazard. Don't say I don't suffer for my art. Early on someone – Sue, I think – asked me what I'm going to do when I've reviewed every restaurant in East Dulwich. I'm nowhere near that point, but what I have found is that a lot of new openings have tended to be in Rye Lane, so the site has expanded to cover SE15, hence the slight change of name (still haven't had any cease and desist letters from anything with a similar name).  Anyway, the site is still free, it would be great if as many readers as possible here can subscribe so that they automatically get new posts (when you try to subscribe the default might be paid subs but that's down to Substack, just tick the free option instead) as I don't post everything on EDF. Obviously you can get reviews elsewhere if you want, but I think this is the only proper site for local East Dulwich people written by a local East Dulwich person. If you like eating out please have a read. And if there are other places you think I should visit please mention them below and i'll do my best to try them.

    • Can you explain what your point was, then? Because it isn't clear to me. No. Perhaps you could provide a link and explain its relevance? That would be helpful     Those figures suggest that over 10,000,000 voters were not "rejecting a far left party."
