Free: Decorative dress trim (Castle Ward Lancaster) This light turquoise/ duck egg blue decorative trim came off an item that I've been giving a Sewing Bee style transformation. The washing label says the trim is 100% cotton and I would describe it as a kind of heavy weight broderie anglais rather than crochet or lace. It is approximately 9cm/ 3½ inches deep. The two pieces which came from the short sleeves are about 44cm/ 17 inches long and one from the hem is about 142cm/ 56 inches long.

Free: Kitchen plinth heater (Central Lancaster LA1) Gifted I bought this five or six years ago to replace the ancient wall heater in my new flat. The electrician who installed it told me that he couldn't figure out how to use the remote control. Without bluetooth pairing you can't set the timer but he showed me how to switch it on and off. The problem was that the remote control in the manual looks completely different to the one supplied with the heater. It turned out that my kitchen doesn't really get very cold so I've only ever used it an odd time or two and now I've forgotten how to switch it on and off. It's been taken out as I'm getting a new kitchen installed and I wondered if someone else might be able to make use of it. It could only be used by someone who knows how to tinker with electrical things to get them working again. I will only gift this to someone who is reasonably confident that they could get it working.

Free: Unused mop and bucket (Castle Ward Lancaster) Gifted Bought this online thinking that it would be able to store in a particular small space. But it doesn't dismantle fully and part of the handle sticks out of the top so it doesn't fit in the cupboard - I never used it. The bucket has two sections for clean water and dirty water.

Free: Waterproof Leg Protector (Castle Ward Lancaster) Expired This is designed to be worn in the shower to stop a dressing on the foot or lower leg getting wet. I have carefully cleaned it with antibacterial wipes. Could also be worn on the hand too but I don't think it would be big enough to go over a cast. The hoop part is about 15cm/6“ wide.
