PEOPLE are being urged to donate unwanted mobile phones to help raise cash for charity.

So far bosses at Age Concern Blackburn with Darwen said they have raised £200 on the scheme.

A spokesman said: “If you’ve received a new mobile phone for Christmas you can help raise much needed funds for Age Concern by recycling any old, unwanted mobile phones.

“For every phone collected Age Concern receives £3 regardless of its condition.

“All monies raised go directly towards supporting services for local older people.”

Call Age Concern Blackburn with Darwen on 01254 266620 or email enquiries@ageconcernblackburn.co.uk for free post envelopes to send your old mobiles in.

Or you can visit the offices at 4 King Street in Blackburn, Darwen Town Hall or the shop at 3 Market Street, Darwen.
