Hello and Welcome to the Students Who Shop Blog...

Students who Shop is a project delivered by Volunteer Centre Oldham and is part of the Student Volunteer campaign. It is an exciting opportunity for students who want to develop a career in retail or business. Students taking part in the project will volunteer for ten weeks with a charity shop in the Oldham borough.

The charity shops are:

• Age Concern Charity Shop in Failsworth
• Arthritis Care UK
• RSPCA Shop
• PDSA Shop
• Cancer Research UK

Alongside volunteering, the students will be able to undertake retail related training including Visual Merchandising and Customer Service Skills.

This blog will document the journey of the students volunteering in the charity shops and I hope you are able to follow them along their way.
