Hi Does anyone know any charities accepting expired medical supplies?

The Expiry date refers to the guarantee of sterility, so they could potentially be re-sterilised or used as practice equipment. Also have some in date needles that we may be able to donate too. We cant really afford shipping costs though.I know there was someone accepting expired supplies for palestine during the last crisis there but lost his number.

If anyone can think of anywhere let me know.

Thanks

Rachel
