BUSINESSES and individuals in Redditch are being asked to give their stamp of approval to a fundraising drive by the League of Friends.

Every year, the league receives thousands of donated stamps which it can then convert into cash.

Up until August, the Friends raised £722 this year alone through donated stamps.

Of particular interest to the organisation is slightly more unusual stamps or foreign stamps from companies who deal with businesses overseas.

Stamps can be sent to the league office at the Alexandra hospital or dropped off in the Friends coffee shop.
