PLAID Cymru councillor Ian Johnson has called on Barry to “Bag It and Beat It” as part of the British Heart Foundation’s new campaign to fund research into heart conditions.
Speaking with Barry’s BHF shop manager, Victoria Froud, at their stall in Barry Library, Cllr Ian Johnson said: “The Bag It and Beat It campaign is calling on local residents to fill a bag with good-quality clothes, shoes, books, handbags, DVDs, CDs, bric-a-brac or children’s toys and bring them to your local BHF shop.”
There is also a collection service if you can’t take items to the shop yourself, on 0800 915 7000. For furniture and electrical items, visit bhf.org.uk/collection.
Cllr Johnson continued: “Like all quality charity stores in the centre of Barry, the BHF shop on Holton Road has a wide selection of clothes, DVDs and other items where any purchases go to a good cause.”
