Barnardo’s Scotland are asking people across Lanarkshir­e to spring clean their wardrobes to raise vital funds for the most disadvanta­ged children in the country.

The charity, which has a shop on Rutherglen Main Street, are appealing for clothing, footwear and accessorie­s like jewellery, belts and handbags.

Martin Crewe, Barnardo’s Scotland director, said: “Each year we are overwhelme­d by the volume and quality of donations kind-hearted people bring to our shops.

“With their continued support we can ensure that the funds raised will help transform the lives of those children who desperatel­y need our help and support.”

Instead of throwing things away, you can give them to Barnardo’s to raise cash to help the most disadvanta­ged children in the UK.

The popular spring clean event is one of the most important annual fundraiser­s for the children’s charity.
