Free: CD/DVD labelling kit (Kidlington OX5) This is quite an old kit! I am pretty sure the kit is complete - seems to contain all the parts listed, plus additional labels I think.

Free: 2 x exercise stretch bands (Kidlington OX5) Two exercise stretch bands - red and blue. I think they were from NHS physiotherapy a long while ago - looks like they were cut off from a longer strip. The red one is approx 45cm x 12.5cm. The blue one is approx 82cm x 12.5cm. I've given them a rinse and there are some streaks/mottled patches on them, but otherwise I think all okay. They stretch, but just don't look overly attractive with the mottled patches!
