Just a warning - we left a bag to be picked up today for charity. About 10 minutes ago (6.00ish) my partner told me that the bag had been picked up. I looked outside to see a woman (about late 30's/early 40's - long straggly dark hair) in an alley rooting out the contents and discarding stuff all over the alley. I sent my partner outside to get the bag back from her and she claimed that she 'wasn't doing no 'arm' - no harm apart from stealing from a charity and throwing a contents of a bag all over the street.


I left the bag outside all day yesterday for one charity to claim and all day today without any charity picking it up. Last week I left a bag outside all day Monday (for a different charity) without it being picked up. The bag went Wednesday - at the time I was pleased but now wonder if the contents are in a bin somewhere discarded by the charity bag thief - and there was some good stuff in it that I hoped would bring money to charity.


I guess I'll carry my bags to the charity shops from now on.


Thanks very much to this woman for making me doubt even more..........

I have seen this nutter, she was outside scope near goose green roundabout she was going through every bag and just leaving such a mess over the street. So thoughfully I pointed this out to her....just got this daft look as if she was in her own world.....so made a sarcastic comment and left....if you see her watch out for all your charity stuff.

Thats them.!

They will have your hanging baskets and even your milk.

On another note, most of the "through the door" charity bags ,are in fact not actualy what they seem. They are just profit making companies who re sell.Read the small print on these dodgy leaflets and bags.

    • Anyone can deliver for Evri - my daughter having just passed her driving test tried Evri to make some money - they basically give you a route and as many parcels as they think you can cope with - you make money for each one you deliver, so you can imagine - speed is the priority. Why would they wait for you to answer the door when they can just throw it and take a photo? If you have a choice, choose a different courier service or shop elsewhere where they do.  
    • Boil - it’s the customer’s fault, not the delivery person’s. 
    • A bit of a long shot but I'm on the lookout for a portable pop-up counter or podium.   The kind you often see on a high street, used by charities or utility companies to advertise their wares.   I've included a photo to give you the idea. I'm a peckham-based artist and am looking for one for a free (and non-profit) community art project.  It can be in any workable condition and can already have signage on it as we will remove and redecorate ourselves.    Thanks in advance, Linzie
    • No I absolutely did not - that much is clear. Have you read the latest stories about Unite, Len and the hotel in Birmingham? The UK electorate were smart enough to reject a far-left party in 2019, let's hope they are smart enough to reject a far-right party at the next election too. If not we are all doomed.
