Dear Rag-Bag Participants
Email from Rag Bag as follows:

Reluctantly we have been forced into the decision to reduce further the items we can accept as part of the Rag-Bag scheme.
The increases in Sterling against certain foreign currencies during the last 12 months mean that HOUSEHOLD items now cost significantly more to collect than their recyclable value. We have therefore had to remove these items from the collection list.
 
We trust that you will continue to give your support to the Rag-Bag scheme as it still represents an excellent source of fundraising for your organisation.
 
What We Can Collect:
                     
Wearable Clothing – All fashions – All ages.
Paired Shoes
Handbags
Belts
 
We Can No Longer Accept:-
Workwear
Uniforms
Wet or Soiled Clothes
Curtains
Towels
Duvets or Covers
Pillows or Cases
Blankets
Cushions
Table Cloths
Linens
Carpets
Suitcases
Books
Bric-a-Brac
Hangers
Electricals.
Yours Faithfully,
Rag Bag
