cramped

Horrible shop,maybe not to the casual customer but i volunteered there for just over a year and it was amazing at the start and i worked my finger to the bone and made great friends and had a good rapport with the customers and i would leave each day with a great feeling of satisfaction but as the months went on i started to see cracks,like most of these places it can be very cliquey and full of gossip and people slagging of each other behind each others back which i simply find childish and some of the paid staff were lazy and were not up to the job they were being paid to do that was frustrating to watch and the manager puts pressure of the volunteers but seems the paid staff can take a back seat and do nothing as the volunteers run the shop,the place was mismanaged and full of bullies.there was a older lady who volunteered and acted like a five year old and just because she was there the longest she seemed to think she could bully and talk down to anyone on the shop,it happened to me and i informed the manager and nothing was down as the manager was best buddies with said old lady so i had no chance of winning that battle and the manager and the old lady simply made sure they sucked all the my good will and nature out of me and i ended up hating going in to volunteer.I put in so much time and effort into that place and it ment the world to me but the paid staff were a joke apart from one of the assistant managers but sad fact is that the old lady will continue to bully and be mean to people and the place will still be run by idiots to this day,a sad little shop run by sad little mean spirited people who have no respect for the hard work and the time and effort volunteers give up to help the charity.Avoid this shop like the plague.

First port of call for all my old clothes.

Mean nasty bunch. Someone should tell them charity begins at home.
