If you are donating clothes to charity shops, bear in mind that if you live in a small place, it may not be the best thing to give them to local charity shops if possible. Seeing someone wearing your loved one's clothing can be really upsetting. Obviously this is only an issue if the items are immediately recognisable, but I was caught out in this way and nearly got hit by a car as I ran across the road when I thought I saw my granny wearing her favourite coat. In that moment, I genuinely thought it was her.
