Money for used stamps

Your used stamps can raise money for Epilepsy Action. For every 1kg (2lb 3oz) Epilepsy Action will receive at least £2 and our postage costs are reimbursed.

What to collect

  • Any postage stamps, including used British and foreign stamps
  • Unused mint stamps
  • StampsFirst day covers
  • Presentation packs
  • Sheets of stamps
  • Old stamp albums and collections

  

What to do next

  • Trim around the stamp leaving approximately a five millimetre border and making sure that there is not a double layer of envelope around the stamp.
  • Take care not to trim too close to the stamp – this may spoil the perforations.
  • Please do not sort your stamps – collectors prefer to buy a mixed bag so please leave foreign, old and UK stamps in together.
  • Send your stamps to the address below.

Please send your used stamps to the address below, making sure you have added enough postage to the package in order to avoid surplus postage fees

Because of the new postage size/weight rules many often send small envelopes which are bulky and do not cover the postage, as a result we probably paid out over £10 in fees in the last batch, we will only get about £35 for this batch therefore losing a 1/3:
