Jewellery

Unwanted jewellery can be given to charity shops or offered on Freegle or Freecycle. Alternatively, there are on-line organisations like Recycling for Good Causes that accept jewellery and watches, regardless of condition, via the post, for re-sale/recycling to raise funds for national charities and local groups such as scouts and brownies.

Junk mail

You can substantially reduce the amount of unwanted junk mail you receive by contacting the Mailing Preference Service and getting yourself excluded from most of the selected mailing lists. Further information on our Junk Mail page.
