WE have recently been undertaking a house to house collection of children's clothing in various parts of town and have discovered that we have 'clashed' with collections being undertaken by other charities, even though we had asked around beforehand to try and prevent this.
It appears that there is no co-ordination or such collections which means that they become a nuisance to householders and are very inefficient for the charity concerned.
May I ask charities involved in house to house collections in Leigh to contact me with a view to trying to set up some sort of co-ordination, which, hopefully, would be to everyone's benefit.
