Scraps of various materials - does anyone collect these in Chiswick?

I have material scraps of many fabrics and sizes. Does anyone know of any charity shops/kids groups/creatives/scholls that may want them? Have tried Freebay and Olio, but no takers.

Lost Heart Neclace

I lost a necklace last night somewhere between Grove Park Road and Grove Park Terrace.  It's a silver coloured chunky heart, and had various charms around it on the chain (e.g a ring and other shiny stones).  It is costume jewellery but of great sentimental value.  If found please let me know.  Many thanks.

The cycle lane (again)

I have just had a difficult experience crossing Chiswick High Road on the zebra near M&S. I got stranded in the middle (there is no island) when a car failed to stop. To be fair to the driver, it is very hard to see pedestrians on the zebra when the traffic is queuing in the other direction. I was then startled by a cyclist passing me at high speed and feet away from me on the zebra. The cyclist was on the main carriageway, not the cycle lane. There is no doubt in my mind that the cycle lane has made CHR less safe for pedestrians. I also think the cycle lane is not very safe for cyclists with all the intersections with side roads and proximity to oncoming cyclists. I suggest (probably in vain) that the cycle lane be taken out and replaced with two wider lanes for all road users with a 10 mph speed limit. That would be safer and probably on average faster for all. Before anyone accuses me of being anti cyclist, I walk, cycle and drive in Chiswick in roughly equal proportion.
