Please do not leave donations outside our shops. Staff need to check them for cleanliness and safty. Rats also wee indiscriminately over items as communication and territory marking. Rats are everywhere in the UK. Any donations left outside we have to bin just encase a rat or other animals such as cats or foxes have urinated on them. We have signs and cctv up . So do all other charity shops in the UK. Take donations in during working hours
