It has come to our attention that leaflets are being dropped through people’s letter boxes offering the chance to recycle unwanted clothing.
Having read some of these leaflets very carefully, it is obvious to me that in many cases there are some vital pieces of information missing.
Some of the leaflets completely leave out the name of the charity concerned. Others state that they will “try” to ensure your clothing donations reach the third world. One of the leaflets in question had only mobile phone numbers listed as contact numbers. Some even ask that you provide you own bags!
Harborough police would urge all residents to be cautious as to which charity collection they contribute to. If you are keen to ensure that your donations actually go where you want them to, please take the time to read the leaflets and flyers carefully and if necessary to telephone the numbers provided to confirm that they are who they claim to be.
If you have any suspicions about charity collections or you observe any suspicious activity, please don’t hesitate to call the police on 0116 222 2222 or Leicestershire Trading Standards (Consumer Direct) on 08454 04 05 06 or the Charity Commission on 0845 3000 218
