    I think they've all gone. I help with a local charity and the price they receive dropped by half about a year ago.

    If you do find one you'll be lucky to get £4 a bag. If you donate a bag, the charity could get £20+ selling the items. Plus they can gift aid.
  • There is one in the row of shops beside the Four Winds restaurant at the top of Newton Park in SE Belfast.


    However, I would agree with using a charity shop, where possible.

    I recommend Salvation Army or SVP what they don't sell they pass on to families in need or get a decent rate themselves from textile recycling. 50p a kilo from a pop up shop won't cover your petrol and you'll feel better in yourself giving to charity ;)
    I am trying, honest;) very trying according to my dear OH:rotfl:
