    Lightbulb Jigsaw puzzles

    Hi, I have a few jigsaw puzzles to offload. Does anyone know if any elderly persons homes that would like them or any other suggestions?

    I've not observed that elderly people are that into jigsaws, having grown up in an era where people had to be much more concerned with practical matters. However, mahjong sets would be a completely different story

    If they are not terribly complex, perhaps schools? St James's Settlement in Wancahi is a charity that takes in old furniture, perhaps they'd be able to recycle the puzzles. Off memory they have a small store in-house for secondhand stuff. Near the Hopewell centre.

    , not everyone is as obsessively cheap as to assume that local transportation costs present an insurmountable hurdle to dropping off jigsaw puzzles.
