RSPB want used stamps
Save your stamps for albatrosses
A big thank you to everyone who has pledged their support to our 'Save the Albatross' appeal, which has so far raised more than £650,000.
You can help us raise even more by sending us the used stamps from your post, which we can sell.
If possible, please put UK and foreign stamps in separate, labelled envelopes. You don't have to steam the stamp from the envelope, just tear off the corner with the stamp and send it in.
We raise £1.50 per kg for UK stamps and £12.50 per kg for foreign stamps. Last year we raised almost £3,000 for the RSPB's funds, so thanks to those who have sent stamps in the past.
If you have a large number of stamps, the most economical way for you to get them to us, is to combine delivering them with a great day out to one of our nature reserves. You can see some fabulous birds, enjoy the countryside and help the albatross all in one go! See the list on the right of our reserve visitor centres across the UK which will take stamps for you.
Alternatively, you can post your stamps. Send yours to: RSPB Stamps, PO Box 6198, Leighton Buzzard, Bedfordshire LU7 9XT. Please do not include any other correspondence.
Help us save these magnificent birds
Every year 100,000 albatrosses are killed by longline fishing. This is having a devastating impact on albatross populations across the world. Now all 21 species of albatross are threatened with extinction.
Please help us save these magnificent birds. Money raised from your stamps will be used to help fund a global campaign to save the albatross from indiscriminate longline fishing.

May as well rather than throw them away
