No idea if this is the right section but does anyone know of a local charity that might want a wedding dress? I have a beautiful designer dress that I can't bear to gather dust. Much prefer it went to a good home.


Any suggestions welcome

 

Oxfam sell donated clothes online as well as in their shops.


You could try phoning the Oxfam shop at Herne Hill ?


They might be able to get more money for it online, as it will have many more potential buyers than in just one local shop?

oo thanks I'll try oxfam

 

I think that StChristophers which is a local charity may appreciate it more.

They have less admin costs than a huge concern like Oxfam and also make much less money from donations.

 

Unfortunately it is highly unlikely that somebody is going to be in the St Christopher's shop and is looking for a wedding dress and just happens to spot this one.


Which happens both to be in their size and a style that they like.


Whereas Oxfam online has a much larger number of potential buyers.


I bought my partner a linen jacket from there after we had been looking in charity shops for one for ages.

      Dell Autos is closing tomorrow

      By Sue · Posted

      Closing down completely. The lovely people there are all retiring. Thanks, but Deptford is a long way to go to make two journeys to  take and collect a car! Do they not do even relatively minor repairs if it fails its MOT first time? Then that would require four journeys 😭 Wondering if there's already a thread on here for garage recommendations? People on my road WhatsApp group have recommended some local ones. I'm particularly gutted because apart from the lovely people who worked there,  Dell was a five minute walk for me!

      I did think that might be the reason, but five years out of seven it's going to be a weekday (I think. Not sure how leap years might affect things!)

      Fireworks

      By first mate · Posted

      Probably because the 5th was a weekday. We still have the weekend to come. Also, some fireworks going off nearly every night for the last few months. Last night something was being let off that made a very deep booming noise every 10 seconds or so. That said, if the general public are beginning to see the harm done by firework noise and choosing to use low noise options and refusing to support organised events that still use the full throttle type, I for one would be very happy. Does anyone know if the Herne Hill Velodrome Halloween fireworks event used low noise options?
