Staff and volunteers at the Sherwood PDSA Charity shop are urging locals to donate their unwanted items or time to help sick and injured pets.
The shop is desperate for good quality donations including men’s and ladies clothes, shoes and accessories as well as homeware, books, CDs, DVDs, and vinyl.
PDSA Shop manager Leanne Taylor said: “Perhaps your wardrobe is bulging with unworn clothes or your shelves are full of books you never read? Why not have a clear-out and donate your unwanted items to PDSA? As well as de-cluttering your home, you’ll be helping a very worthy cause at the same time.
Leanne is also appealing for local people to lend a hand and volunteer at the shop. Leanne added: “We’re looking for enthusiastic volunteers who are passionate about pets and who can lend a hand.
“Volunteering for PDSA is fun and the skills you learn look great on any CV, plus you get to meet new people and make some friends along the way. No previous retail experience is needed, as full training is provided for all new volunteers. So, if you would like to help sick and injured pets, why not join our friendly volunteer team.”
