Quality clothing clear out!

Options
I am having a huge clothing clear out at the moment and have two large bag fulls of clothing (of which is good quality well looked after shirts, t-shirts, jeans etc).

Does anyone know any particluar charities that welcome you going to them with your unwanted clothing?

I live near Rugby and Coventry if this helps?

I know most places prefer cash donations but I am sure that some out there would welcome clothing.

    If you don't want to give them to a charity shop, then the most-likely-to-be-greatful for clothing charities are the Salvation Army and charities working with the homeless. I'm guessing you're a he: if you are a she then Women's Aid is another.

    Where I live we have 9 charity shops - guess they would love your unwanted clothes as donations (in all forms) seem to be down at the moment!
