#Volunteers Week...

As many of you will know, 1st - 7th June is volunteers week around the UK and here at Oxfam we want to celebrate it!

We're hoping to run little training sessions on Friday 1st, Monday 4th and Wednesday 6th to give everyone a taste of what we do here in oxfam.

Whether its as part of the shop floor team, sorting and pricing team or joining us here on the top floor to find out all about the online side part of Oxfam, we would love to have you.

Volunteering isnt just for these 7 days though. We have a wonderful team here who not only enjoy the days they volunteer, but have also found that volunteering has changed their lives in someway or another.

Most have had the chance to learn new skills or meet people from different backgrounds and so many finish each day in a positive frame of mind knowing that even just an hour has made our fight against poverty easier.

If you would like the chance to volunteer with us in Exeter (in either our books, music or standard shops)
contact us via

Looking forward to summer...

Like us, I'm sure you can't wait for those glorious sunny days when you can rock your favourite frock or (board shorts) and frolick barefoot on the beach.

We're hoping that those days aren't far away and are putting some fantastic clothes onto our snazzy new website.

There's so much to choose from! Elegant floaty dresses to daring skirts or tailored shorts to checked shirts.

And don't forget those every so important accessories. We've got a deluge of gorgeous scarves ready to go online, including many that are 100% silk and have that beautiful vintage style to them.

And what do you need to carry everything around in but a fashionable and practical handbag (or rucksack if it's a big day out!).

We have so many items on our website to cater for all your needs!

Let us know what gems you find via our twitter feed. www.twitter.com/exeOOSoxfam

We look forward to hearing from all of you lovely people!
