Save The Children

Found some great quality items here. The set up is similar to a high end boutique and this was what attracted me to it!

I have been volunteering at Clapham Save The Children for about two months now and shopping here since I arrived in London over 7 months ago.
This place has the best variety of goods that are reasonably priced; this is compared to the other charity stores in the area. They always have fantastic music playing and the volunteers are all so friendly and helpful (me included!).
If you are in need trying to outfit your house or find an outfit for yourself on a budget (and who isn’t on a budget in London?) this is the place to go. Also if you’re just looking for a lazy weekend chat, swing by and come hang out or if you’re interested, they are always looking for volunteers.

Has had a refurb, looks very posh and organized now. The things on sale look of a higher quality. Drop off your unwanted items.

You CAN find a bargain here but the usual prices are high and the attitude offensive. People who live in Clapham are neither stupid nor need to be milked.
The attitude seems to be «Oh that’s designer (when its a Primark men’s label) so that’s £19.99 for a tie. that cost a £2.99 to start with.
I give to charity out of good will but places like this make me think twice.

I have found my Mecca in Clapham! I never really thought that south London would be the place to go to find some seriously cool second hand goodies, but I should never have been so quick to judge. You see, where I use to live in Dalston there was an Oxfam that was dedicated to music, books and films. Most vinyl was a pound an books started from 50p. I have never quite seen a collection like that in a charity shop until now.
Not only does this shop have a mini fort made of fabulous vinyl but it ranges from classic David Bowie to modern trance. They know what they are talking about in this shop so yes things are a little bit more expensive with £4.99 for a Dylan album, but that actually makes me respect them more.
Not only that though, at the back they have old working typewriters, antique travel chests, hand driven Singers and 1970s tea sets. It’s like Narina, never ending!

Although this shop is a charity shop, their clothes are very trendy and fashionable. I should know beacuse i have done work experience here before and i did bag myself some goodies. Of course being a charity shop means that the prices are very good, so theres no guilt feeling there.
Right in the highstreet with a bus top in front, sainsburys local opposite and Clapham North tube station a few mins ahead; what’s stopping you?.
