    Made a quick drop off at the local shoe bin (does anyone know if they actually want worn out shoes as well as more decent ones) and also cleared a bag full of carrier bags to the local CS. Only a small bag of actual donations for them but every little helps.
    The rspca shop in the next town has a sign outside, saying they they can get money for worn out shoes so to please give to them instead of binning. So they must be able to recycle them somehow for cash.
