I have x if anyone is in need

[Givingupmyjob]

Following on from the truly skint thread I bet there are lots of us with things we have that we would be prepared to send to those who are really struggling. I don't want to insult anyone by offering things but at the same time I want to help if I can. I have boys clothes and shoes up to age 5 and black school trousers age six. Pm me. Anyone else have anything

[stressedHEmum]

boys shoes are gone now.

I still have the girls ones. I should have said that they are a size 4.

Ta :)

OK, I haven't had a really solid look yet, but some things I found before work this morning...
1 pair boys brown suede shoes size Eur26, which I think is an 8.5 over here. They've only been worn once to a wedding then ds was completely unreasonable and grew out of them!

1 pair Thomas the Tank engine slippers with flashing lights, size 7

Girls outfit never worn age 12-18 months. It's a brown cord pinafore with a pink long sleeved top underneath. Maybe not the most summery, but the way this summer's going....

All free to a good home, I'll pay postage. PM me your address.

[IAmBooyhoo]

Tons of maternity clothes size 10, really lovely stuff.

Women's shoes couple of pairs of wedges (one Dune, tan raffia style heel, one Jones the Bootmaker, light green leather) both only worn a few times - size six

One pair or patent ballet flats worn about twice.

Not exactly child related but I've got loads of nursing text books approx 8-10 yrs old if anyone wants them (am near glasgow). Way too heavy to post. In immaculate condition. Seminal texts that just get added to rather than rewritten.

Also have a cosy coupe car (yellow and red) and a blue rocker thing for the garden.

[IAmBooyhoo]

i'm also getting rid of my two sofas. was going to have council collect them but if anybody wants them and can collect (i have no way of transporting them) then they're yours. they are cream leather, a two and a three seater. they have quite a few blue biro marks on them and cat scratches on the front but are otherwise are in good condition. Again county Down

"I always have plenty of store cupboard food and a listening ear and a full kettle if anyone ever wants a chat or some company, or finding themselves in dire need of staples for feeding the family. I'm in West Sussex. "

people with full kettles are the best kind . if i was in west sussex you'd be my friend.

[CharlieUniformNovemberTango]

I agree booyhoo :o

I'm in east Sussex (just) but I nip over to west Sussex weekly anyway.

My kettle is always full. But I can only have one other person around at the moment because I've packed the other mugs!

Forgive me if it's already been done, but how about a swap party? (Obvs for local to each other mnetters). Basically turn up with all spare clothing and shoes & toys etc, have tea and cake and give and swap between you? I sometimes do this with a group of girls I know!

[NorksAreMessy]

I have far too much store cupboard food and we are moving in a few weeks. Am happy to post to anyone who needs some.

Love this thread and would very much like MN to make this a more formal and organised thingy, so we can see what has gone and what is needed.

It would be great for soemone to be able to say 'anybody got a steriliser' and for someone else to say 'had forgotten I had this, here you go'

[NorksAreMessy]

oooh, and boys clothes for a skinny 12-13 year old. NOT trendy or branded, but clean and in good condition...boy grew like a weed

[Elkieb]

If anyone has any boys clothes from 9 months upwards I would be so, so grateful. My DS is growing so fast and money is getting tighter by the minute . Please PM me if you can help xxx
