Who will take house contents?

[hillyhilly]

MIL now in a home, her house is in Swindon, I will be clearing the kitchen next week, as well as a good microwave, kettle and toaster, she has any number of old, mismatched pans and crockery, no use to us but surely of some use to someone? Can anyone advise please? Not getting far on google

Have you tried British heart foundation shops? Or your locsl hospice shop?

Agree, look up your charity shop of choice. Many will collect donations.

British heart foundation or local hospice? It's so hard. Can you get someone to help you?

Hillyhilly - we're about to start doing this with my mum's house. She's 91 and now in a care home with dementia. It's horrible thinking about dismantling someone's home while they are still alive - and feels very underhand. I guess we'll give a lot of stuff to charity shops and furniture to the BHF (although I know from experience that they are quite particular about what they will take).

Our main concern is what to do with more personal stuff - clothes, ornaments etc. No space in the room in her care home but not stuff we feel we can dispose of.
