Cancer Research Charity Shop Open in Oakham Rutland Today

Cancer Research Charity Shop Open in Oakham Rutland Today

The charity shop is open in Oakham today, a good chance to
give away your unwanted Christmas gifts.

If you are thinking of doing just that please think about what you
give to the charity shops.

Last year I pointed out how Cancer Research simply put Christmas
themed gifts and cards straight out with the rubbish.

Out of some of the examples of waste I photographed, I pointed
out the same Christmas mug and chocolates were still selling
on E-bay for over £5.

So if you have a unwanted Christmas themed jumper hang on
to it and donate it next September when Christmas items sell.
or donate it to Rob Persani at Rutland Radio, he only has three! :-)
















This year also saw Cancer Research spend £20,000
turning its Oakham Shop into a boutique style outlet
that failed and it has returned to looking like
a more traditional style charity shop,

Personally I would donate to one of the other shops
that does not squander money in this way. Age UK
Leicestershire & Rutland?
