AS part of Volunteers' Week 2005, Save The Children UK thanks all the volunteers who run it's charity shop in York.
Every year it raises many thousands of pounds to ensure more British children and those across the world have a happy, healthy and secure childhood.
This year, because of the fantastic public support for the Tsunami Appeal, the shop volunteers had to pull out all the stops to cope with unprecedented levels of donations of clothing, books and bric-a-brac, as well as many generous financial gifts.
The York shop is run entirely by volunteers and I thank them all for being, and staying, with us.
If you can spare any time to help run the York shop please phone Iain at our regional office on 0131 527 8216 to find out more.
With your help we can continue to expand our work to make real and lasting changes to children's lives worldwide.
