A children’s charity has pleaded with its customers to stop donating used and unused sex toys.
Volunteers at the Barnardo’s shop in Gorseinon, Swansea, Wales, were shocked after opening the bags of donations.
It is now reminding people the branch has CCTV so it can trace the donations back to the owners.
A spokesperson said: ‘Could those of you who kindly donate please be mindful that we are a CHILDREN’S CHARITY and as such we have a range of ages on our wonderful volunteer team.
‘We therefore ask that you refrain from donating your used and unused marital aids!
‘We would like to remind you that the branch has CCTV so that these items can be traced back to their owners. Thank you.’

A Barnardo’s spokesperson added: ‘We’re always hugely appreciative of donations from the community – but it’s fair to say that these items aren’t quite the sorts of toys we’re looking for.
‘This winter, frontline staff at Barnardo’s will be helping struggling children and families across Wales by providing them with essential items like food and clothing.
