Where to donate used UK postage stamps

simonsmithsays

For years we've been sending these to Macmillan Cancer but this year they've stopped accepting them.

Internet searches come up with a whole lot of inaccurate institutions who no longer accept them too.

Does anyone have an up to date information and link on who might still like to receive these please.

Marie Curie accepts them, there's a freepost address but I can't seem to post the link- just google 'recycle stamps Marie Curie' and the address is in the PDF doc that comes up in the search

Parkinson’s UK will accept them.

Hi 
honestly I wouldn’t look to donate them. Just recycle them. Stamp collectors don’t use them so they go into, what is know as, kiloware and the only buyers of them are those people who engage in fraud by taking the stamps off paper attempting to remove the postmark and sell them again on well known marketplaces. Often these get caught and the victims are those who receive Mail and have to pay surcharges for the item being sent with a used stamp.

Don’t encourage fraud just bin them.
