Sounds stupid but they won't accept them back
My friend sold her mum's stuff on fb just to get rid of them

Kaz, there was a post about this on my local NextDoor group as well... I'm sure that everywhere still has charities collecting for Ukraine (and now probably Gaza as well) that would be absolutely over the moon to take these items.

I've got friends who will be driving a refurbed ambulance over at some point and I'm sure they'd be happy to take all these things, but the question is (and I'd need to check with my friends) how to get them from you to here x

I’ll speak to Em, Ria, last I heard she was hoping a local charity might step up. It’s just ridiculous, the waste in the NHS :?

:( I don’t blame her, but it’s such a shame she had to!
