Vintage Giving

Got some old or vintage items hanging around that you no longer want? Vintage Giving offer a free, simple, service where your old, unwanted stuff is turned into a donation to St Helena Hospice.

The best part is, the things you donate don’t even have to be in perfect condition or working, they can still generate funds!

All you need to do is request a donation pack, fill a box with your unwanted, old, or vintage items and drop it off at a Post Office or book a home collection, either way there’s no cost to you, or us!

Your items are then turned into funds and donated back to us.

Vintage Giving is a sustainable way to help. Nothing that’s donated goes to waste, every donation is sold, repurposed or recycled.

Things you can donate with Vintage Giving:

  • Costume jewellery
  • Gold
  • Silver
  • Cameras
  • Old currency (out of circulation and foreign currency can also be donated directly to us in collection pots or at our shops! )
  • Medals and militaria
  • Writing instruments
  • Vintage toys
  • Silver plate
  • Watches and clocks
  • Jewellery
  • And more!

Processing fees

When you make a donation to St Helena Hospice, we are charged transactional fees by other companies, including fees for processing payments made to us, looking up addresses and validating bank account details.

We are very grateful to our donors who offer to offset some of these fees with a minor addition to their total amount. This is however completely optional and we are very grateful for your support whether or not you choose to contribute to processing fees.

About Gift Aid

We are able to claim an extra 25p on every £1 on your donation amount for no extra cost to you, as long as you are a UK tax payer; have paid enough income tax or capital gains tax in that tax year; and are donating your own money. If you pay less income tax and/or capital gains tax than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all of your donations in that tax year it is your responsibility to pay any difference. For more information about Gift Aid, please visit https://www.gov.uk/donating-to-charity/gift-aid
