Alternatively you can collect stamps for charities or start your own collection.

Collecting for charities

• Save all of your stamps, especially commemorative and foreign stamps
• Cut around the stamps, leaving a 5mm border
• Separate stamps if you can, into UK and foreign boxes
• Most charities collect used stamps - search online using the term "recycling stamps" to find out where you can take or send your stamps to
• Charities sell the stamps to dealers (per kilo) and use the money to fund their projects
