Money for your mobile

If you are upgrading your phone soon or were lucky enough to receive a new one as a present, why not donate your old one to Epilepsy Action? There may be an old phone in the back of a cupboard or in a drawer at home, you could donate these too. Epilepsy Action can convert your mobile phones and accessories into vital funds for those living with or caring for people living with epilepsy.

What to collect

• Old or unused mobile phones
• Mobile phone chargers
• Mobile phone accessories
  

What to do next

• Remove the old SIM card

So why not start collecting? You could ask your friends and family to contribute, start a collection at your school or at your workplace. The mobile phones and accessories will soon add up, no matter how big or small the collection, everyone can make a real difference to people living with epilepsy.

If you wish to start a collection, we will be happy to provide you with an Epilepsy Action sticker to add to a suitable container. Simply add the “What to collect” and “What to do next” information above for guidance. Then send the mobile phones and accessories collected to the address below with the correct postage paid to Epilepsy Action*.

If you think your old phone is of particularly high value, you may wish to consider selling it through eBay, visit how to at: http://www.epilepsy.org.uk/involved/ebay.

Alternatively you may wish to check the value of your phone through one of the phone cash converter companies and consider sending us a donation from the proceeds.

Due to the volume of collections we receive we are unable to write to people and thank them for the amount they have raised. On behalf of all those you have helped Epilepsy Action support, thank you.

*Because of the new postage size/weight rules, small bulky envelopes often result in Epilepsy Action paying excess postage charges.
