Exmouth Charity Shop Shortlisted for National Award, Seeks Community Support

The Children’s Society Charity Shop in Exmouth is a finalist for the "Best Charity Shop in the UK" award. This small shop with a dedicated volunteer team has made it to the final six in the southwest.

The Children’s Society Charity Shop on The Parade in Exmouth has been shortlisted for the prestigious "Best Charity Shop in the UK" award. Despite being a small shop with a limited team of dedicated volunteers, they've made it to the final six in the southwest—a remarkable achievement.

The past year and a half has been particularly challenging for the team. After shop manager Zaina fell ill, a volunteer stepped up to manage the shop with a skeleton crew. Together, they have worked tirelessly to keep the shop open and stocked.

The team is now asking for the community’s support in securing the award. Voting closes on September 23rd, and every vote could make a difference in helping this hardworking team gain national recognition. https://www.charityretail.org.uk/the-uks-favourite-charity-shop-south-west/
