Wanted - Your old mobile phones - a good excuse to buy a new mobile ?

St.Matthew's Lourdes Group, Manchester is keen to take your old mobile phones off your hands, with or without charges. They receive £4, for each one. All the money raised will go towards the cost of sick children going on pilgrimage to Lourdes this summer. There has been a tremendous response from some schools in the diocese. Phones can be dropped off at St. Matthew's or arrangements made to collect.
