Trading Standards advise residents of West Sussex to be aware of leaflets requesting donations for unwanted clothing etc. Most are NOT from charities - but from moneymaking companies. Reports have been received from across West Sussex about a variety of leaflets requesting clothing that may give consumers the impression that they are donating to charities. Careful reading of the leaflets indicate that the donations are actually used to "provide jobs" and "affordable second-hand clothing" in less developed countries. In other words it is a company making a profit. There is nothing obviously illegal in this as any company is entitled to make a profit, however many people may be misled into thinking their donations are going to charity. Many of the leaflets quote a limited company name and registration number. This should not be confused with a charity number and our investigations have revealed that most of these companies are dissolved or under consideration for being struck off, generally due to failing to register accounts. It is recommended that if you want to make a donation to a good cause, give them to a High Street Charity or a nationally recognised charity that offers a collection service, this will ensure no one is taking advantage of your generosity. |
