If you have old clothes for disposal, why not bring them there. Your contribution will help the parish and various charities. Currently people are leaving out bags of clothes at their houses to be collected by purely commercial operators & they rarely help significantly any worthy cause ~ despite what a few advertise! And other clothes banks in the village contribute only a very small amount to the charities they advertise. ^___^___ Please do not bring books, toys or any items other than clothes! ^___^__ We always hold hands. If I let go she shops! Henry Youngman.
