Second Hand September

When you buy and donate second hand clothes with Oxfam you give them a longer life. And you help to slow down fast fashion. And protect our planet and its people.

By shopping with Oxfam, you’re also reinvesting your money into vital work beating poverty worldwide. This supports people to speak out and stand up to the climate crisis. To create a fairer and greener future for everyone. Sign up for email updates from Oxfam.

When you donate your pre-loved clothes and accessories to us, they’ll never go to landfill. Your items will either be sold in our shops or we’ll find a use for them – like turning a t-shirt into mattress filler.

Climate change is impossible to ignore – it's affecting us all, and it’s pushing people deeper into poverty. People facing poverty often don’t have access to the support needed to survive and recover from extreme weather, such as clean water on tap during a drought, or house insurance to help rebuild after homes are destroyed by floods. So it’s more important than ever to act now, to prevent this global crisis from becoming a global catastrophe.

By shopping and donating with Oxfam, you’ll not only be helping to combat climate change, the money you help to raise will support people facing poverty around the world. For example, you’ll be reinvesting in communities in Bangladesh – a country that has been largely affected by the economic fallout of the retail industry during this pandemic, and a country that has been increasingly devastated by extreme weather as a result of climate change.
