Redundant spectacles.

[Mctavish]

Not sure where to post this.
I have numerous pairs of spectacles that I have no further use for and some of the frames are quite new.
Does anyone know of anywhere I could send them where someone could make use of them. I am very loathe just to bin them.

The following take old specs for recycling

Dolland & Aitchison

Your local Lions (who pass them to Lions International)

Vision Express

Help the Aged

Costco

This charity will send you an envelope for them, and then use them in 3rd world countries.

Thanks mrs_overall we have a Dolland & Aitchison in town so can drop them in there.

Thanks also to kira000 for that link. I've sent off for one of their envelopes.
