ChildLine, the 24-hour helpline for children and young people, is encouraging local
schools and businesses to donate unwanted mobile phone handsets and chargers to 
raise much funds for the charity.
The campaign, styled as the ChildLine Mobile Phone
Amnesty, starts in January 2004 and will continue throughout the year. It is supported
by TV presenter Ian Wright. A donated mobile phone handset with charger could be
worth up to £70 for ChildLine.
