Donate your stamps

Please donate your stamps to Canine Partners and help us transform the lives of people living with physical disabilities in the UK.

We are calling upon companies, schools and individuals from across the UK to collect and donate stamps and help us raise vital funds.

Canine Partners receives up to £6 per kilo, based on condition. Special stamps are valued separately.

Before sending your stamps:

  • Please carefully cut away any excess paper, leaving approximately 1cm around the stamp when cutting off the envelope, avoiding any damage to the stamp itself and place in an envelope before posting.
  • Please do not send a letter, a monetary donation or any personal details with your donated stamps.
  • This is a 3rd party led activity so no receipt will be sent out when stamps are received.
