Did you know there's a staggering £95 million in foreign notes & coins lying around doing nothing in people's homes? What a waste. Think of the good it could do.
Have a look round & donate every last cent of your unwanted foreign coins & used stamps to our Great Coin & Stamp Appeal. To make it easy as possible we've set up collection points across the country.
You can help by arranging a collection at work or at school. We'll take old foreign & British coins as well as unwanted change left over from your holiday. Every last penny will help provide more care for patients with cancer.
How to donate: Take your coins & stamps to any Marie Curie Shop, office or hospice. Or call 0845 601 3107 (local rate) for your nearest collection point.
By post: Please post your stamps to : The Great Marie Curie Cancer Care Stamp Appeal, c/o 25, Crosby Road, St Anne's on Sea, Lancashire, FY8 3AD
Please do not send your coins in the post.

We collect used stamps (for the Blind I think) at work. Can anyone please tell me how they manage to convert this to cash? Surely a used stamp is valueless?

No, there are still these stamp collectors all over the world! You can buy packs of mixed low value stamps for lots of countries, including UK, and I think we're still very popular all over the world because we thought of it first!Signature removed for peace of mind0
