Recycling Used Postage Stamps

WOW is proud to introduce our Used Postage Stamp recycling scheme, working to raise money for good causes.

How you can recycle Used Postage Stamps
Be a Stamp Champ is a scheme run by the Guide Dog for the Blind Association. They are happy to accept all types of stamps, ordinary first and second class, higher value, special commemorative, foreign, etc. Stamps should be cut off the envelope leaving at least a 5mm border around them. Place them in an envelope and send them to:

Guide Dog Stamps
PO Box 139
Slough
Berkshire
SL1 4PU

How they raise money
They raise tens of thousands of pounds each year from the sale of used postage stamps kindly collected by the public. They sell the stamps to dealers, mainly abroad

Who receives the money
Guide Dogs for the Blind Association receive the money. A kilo of unsorted stamps raises more than enough to feed a puppy for one day.

Further details
For anyone who would like to help stamps at their business, club or school, Guide Dogs can supply posters and collecting boxes. To request any of these items or simply to ask for more information call 0118 983 8298 or email stamps@guidedogs.org.uk. Visit
