Spare a few hours to help at charity shop

Oxfam is calling on people in Berkhamsted donate a little of their spare time by volunteering at the Oxfam Standard shop this year.

Shop manager Carrol Foley said: “This shop could not exist without our team of kind, talented and dedicated volunteers.

“Being such a busy shop, we need to recruit more.

“Each and every new volunteer will be greeted by friendly faces and a warm welcome.”

All volunteers are given on-­the­-job training and the chance to learn new skills, develop existing talents and take on responsibility.

The range of work includes pricing and sorting stock and operating the till.

As little as two hours a week will help raise funds for Oxfam’s work coming to the aid of people living in poverty across the globe.

To find out more about volunteering in the shop, call 01442 864225, email [email protected] or just pop in for a chat.
