CLOTHES COLLECTION

Supporting sport in County Leitrim. Your used and unwanted clothes could convert into badly needed sports kits for Leitrim County Girls under-14 GAA Team. Could you take a few minutes and gather even one bag of used clothes? and all together those part worn clothes would make enough money to make a difference to our county sporting girls.

Your spring cleaning would get off to a great start by checking your used clothes, linens, paired shoes and handbags that you no longer need, and packing a bag to donate to this Community Clothes Drive. You might even make extra space in your wardrobe for new fashion, maybe?

Unfortunat­ely, we can’t take duvets or pillows, but rest assured old pyjamas and everything else are welcome. See the list of names and numbers below to find the nearest drop off point to you. If you gather a bag, and need it collected, we can organise that too.
