Marks and Spencers Change for Change

Out of date, left over holiday dosh burning a hole in a tin....?

"Check holiday wallets, money tins and under your sofas, we all have some old holiday cash or out of date liras laying around, so why not pop along to your local M & S Store and donate"

Hayley Mckenzie, Group Treasurer

Change 4 Change is M&S Money’s scheme for converting foreign and outdated currency into funds for Breakthrough. It lets you donate unwanted coins or notes at any M&S Bureau de Change in the UK - which we then convert to Sterling.

M&S Money research suggests there could be up to £2.3 billion worth of foreign currency in UK homes. So, as well as being environmentally friendly with no impact on your spending power, Change 4 Change can make a huge contribution to breast cancer research.

Our group works closely with the Cambridge Marks and Spencers, and last year between us we managed to collect over £700.00.  Overall the scheme has seen M&S raise more than £11 million for Breakthrough to date.
