Further to my long essay on places to take your surplus clothes and other items milton-news readers have come up with some more suggestions.

Tony wrote to say that the Salvation Army have a shop in Histon at 11 High Street, CB24 9JD, which shares an entrance with Natwest bank and they have a car park at the back. So this is another option if you have a lot to get rid of. It’s open Monday to Friday 9am-4pm and Saturday 9:30am-12:30pm.

Tim suggested the Hospice Shop on Mill Road who will collect from your house. Phone Mr. Wilson on 243800 and ask him to collect. He has an MPV and will take most things: clothes, toys etc.
