You could donate it to an organization that gives it to women in bad domestic situation or in shelters. Even if your plan expired, as long as the battery stays charged you are still able to use the phone to call 911. Call a local shelter or maybe the local police can help you find out where to go with this.
There are also organizations donating them to senior citizens.Just remember to clear out the info on the phone that you wouldn't want nobody else to have. It's tax deductible.

Some cell phone places will take the old ones... many times they are sent to charity where they give cell phones to underpriviled people who are just getting back into the workplace. I believe there is a place that you can send them to this charity.. try searching on google if you are interested in this. Otherwise, good luck trying to get rid of it.

I keep it in the car (with car charger). Supposedly you can dial 911 on those phones. That way, if my current phone's battery goes out or I loose it while driving, I at least have a backup 911 phone.

I'm assuming you are in the UK, but here in the US you can donate old phones to women's shelters. They can be programmed so that they can only dial 911 for emergencies at no charge. Also, some groups recycle the battery.

You can keep 1 as a spare and if it still has some resale value then put it on eBay and get something out of it, or give it to a friend!

Donate it.
There are people who can use it as you can still dial 911 on a deactivated phone.
