Animal charities need used postage stamps

Save used stamps for animal charities...

Anyone can get involved, including children & elderly people. Charities usually ask that you leave a small edge around the stamp when you cut, rather than tear the stamps off and damage it.

This can be a very easy thing to do. Get neighbours, friends, work colleagues & relatives, plus local businesses & schools (e.g. pubs to do a collection box for used stamps) to get involved?

Animal charities need used postage stamps. They can sell them on to raise much needed funds.


The Oldies Club

Here's a great chance to help rehome older dogs in the UK। Mature dogs are all too often overlooked in favour of puppies, although they find themselves looking for a new home because their owners have died or had to move into a nursing home where it has not been possible to take the pet, or for all sorts of other reasons. Mature animals make very loving pets. Send UK/other stamps to Oldies Club Stamps, c/o 14 Colwyn Terrace, Leeds, West Yorkshire LS11 6RB.


Save the Albatrosses

The RSPB can raise money from ALL types of stamps for their Save the Albatross campaign – whether they are used or un-used, UK, foreign or even first day covers.

Nowzad Dogs

This charity looks to help and rescue dogs in Afghanistan who have no-one else to care for them. Its story is amazing. Please send your stamps to "Nowzad Dogs, PO Box 3495, Corsham, SN13 7AE, UK.


Bransby Home of Rest

The home currently has over 280 rescued horses, ponies, donkeys & mules in its care. Still more are fostered out. Send used postage stamps to the home to help horses.

The PDSA

Please send used stamps to the PDSA Stamp Appeal, PO Box 9191, Wishaw, Lanarkshire ML2 0YB and you'll help them in their work to care for the sick and injured animals of owners in need.

The WWF

Please send your stamps to WWF UK. Panda House, Weyside Park, Catteshall Lane, Godalming. Surrey. GU7 1XR


Start saving those stamps today. Keep a jar or envelope for them somewhere you can easily find it, such as by your telephone. It's a little action - but it can make a big difference.

  1. Next time I will participate in this event. I have lots of stamps in my collection and I'm willing to give them for the benefits of the animals.
