Blue hangers from dehumidifier bags (Colchester CO3)
Approx 25 of these from dehumidifier bags. I’m sure there are many useful things they could be used for; hanging bags off a rail, hanging little ones paintings to dry... As per original use they are strong and can hold a fair amount of weight. I don’t think they can be recycled and thought someone could make use of them instead of sending them to landfill.

Over the cot changing mat (Colchester CO3)
A little damage to one end (could be taped up or placed at the head so can’t be seen). The feet that keep it in place over the cot need to be attached. I believe one or two screws may off snapped. New screws and basic DIY skills needed to fix. This and a previous one really saved my back when my children were small.
