Have you considered the Freecycle website?.

I don't want to give it to someone who will then sell it. would rather it went to someone who would use it(my dad laid the law down before he died, he wanted to sell it but no one seems to want it)

Hi

Is there no charities, or nursing homes that could make good use of it.
Or any shops that specialise in them at all?

you could ask nursing homes or community centers who may be able to pass it on to someone who needs it
