Phones for charity

Published Tuesday 19 October 2004 at 10:05

A short time ago you very kindly published a letter I sent you about my work as a fundraiser with the Roy Castle Lung Cancer Foundation (Opinion, July 8, page 8). I asked whether your readers would be able to support my charity by sending in their unwanted mobile phones and used printer cartridges to help raise vital funds towards our work.

I am delighted to tell you that we have had a fantastic response. Readers have been most generous and phones and cartridges have been arriving daily. I would like to take this opportunity to say a very big thank you to you and your readers. This will make a massive difference to our work and will enable us to help those affected by this dreadful disease.

If anyone out there still has an unwanted mobile or a used printer cartridge, just call 08712 50 50 50, visit our website www.recyclingappeal.com/roycastle or simply drop your unwanted items in the post to: Roy Castle Recycling Appeal (EL), 31-37 Etna Road, Falkirk FK2 9EG

Thanks again to your readers for all their help.
