Vintage Vibes a local charity which tackles loneliness is looking for your old clothes and accessories.

They are holding an event at Summerhall in September and anyone who makes a donation will get a free ticket to that.

The charity says that Edinburgh is a lonely city for old people and they try to deal with that by introducing shared interests and helping older people create friendships. Activities range from baking to basketball!

It is a partnership between LifeCare Edinburgh and The Broomhouse Centre and offers one to one home visits, hospital visiting, pet and family visiting and friendship pools.
