I am writing in response to the letter Smashing Charity, (Letters, April 4).
The Borehamwood Cancer Research UK shop is always very grateful for the community's support. Thanks to volunteers, donators and customers, the shops have successfully raised funds towards cancer research for the past 21 years.We try very hard to pass on stock from one shop to another if it doesn't sell. In addition, any excess stock will be passed on to another shop.Unfortunately we do sometimes receive damaged items. Those are the ones that are then destroyed and disposed of. But even in these instances we try to make the most out of them by selling them to a local rag' man.Cancer Research UK depends on its supporters for good quality donations, which can then be sold on, to help raise funds for critical cancer research.Please continue to help us make a difference.Karlene McFarlaneRetail communication executive, Cancer Research UK
