I sent my stamps to this peat bog charity. I put my name/address on the back of the packet & now receive regular updates about peat bogs, conservation, etc. etc. ( wish I didn't now!)

I've another lot saved up now, so let's see if anyone has any other charities!

AS I said above, schools often collect them to sell to stamp dealers.

Indeed we do ... They have been collected at school ... children brought them in but I need to find a suitable home for them.

The last lot we collected was posted to the Irish Peatland Conservation Council.

The child in charge of getting them sorted put a lot of effort into the letter and the packaging of the stamps and was disappointed when no acknowledement of their receipt was received from the IPCC.

.... so I need to find another (more) worthy recipient.

I tried ringing the DSPCA (their website said they accepted used stamps) today but number (advertised on the site) didn't work/ring through.
 
It's actually illegal to re use postage stamps. An Post have taken at least one charity to court.
 
PaddyB, I have given some to a friend before to pass them onto some place in Cork, I can find out the details if you want me to.
