Unwanted clothes and toys are on the list as a charity launches its October stock appeal.

Age UK in High Street, Barnet, is calling on residents to donate their unwanted or unworn clothes and toys to support Age UK's work with lonely older people as part of their annual stock appeal, the Big Bag Challenge.

Age UK High Barnet's store manager said: "Taking part in The Big Bag Challenge couldn’t be easier, which is why we’re asking everyone in High Barnet to get involved.

"With your help we can continue to raise vital funds to support older people in the local area and across the country."
