Not a very eloquent way to put it I suppose, but I was wondering if anyone is involved in/ knows of a charity/s who would like a donation of my 'old' things every 3-6 months or so? Clothes, blankets, appliances, DVDs/PS2+3 games (English), books, etc. The offer is for men's and women's clothes/ interests. I'm happy to drop off the goods if nearby/ around Amsterdam, NL. Thanks to let me know

Hi and welcome to the forum Shelleybean!

Maybe you could post an advert in the Community section of Amsterdam classifieds as well.

We accept all donations of clothing, furniture, books, electronics etc. We have a pick-up service and will come and collect things from your home!
