So following my very exciting appearance on Do the Green Thing's website this week (click here if you missed it!) I thought I would redirect all you charity shop lovers to their insight into the weird and wonderful world of the gigantic Oxfam warehouse in Milton Keynes..
If you think charity shops just run on local donations.. you're in for a real shock. Honestly IT'S ABSOLUTELY FASCINATING!! Click here to reveal all!
Just to get you in the mood here's a few stats showing just what goes on behind closed doors
- 3 skips
a week are filled with paper to be recycled
- 35
bales of clothes get sent to become car seat stuffing each week
On average, every single day:
- 5,800
books arrive at the warehouse
- 400
bags of clothes containing 1000's of items arrive
- 200 books are sold
