💚 “More than they need us, we need them.”
Meet Fathima, a dedicated volunteer at an Oxfam shop since 2023.
From sorting beautiful donated clothes to feeling truly valued, Fathima says the shop has become a welcoming part of her life. With her daughter starting nursery soon, she’s looking forward to coming in every day.
At Oxfam, shop volunteers aren’t just helping, they’re finding purpose, community, and joy.
This National Volunteering Week, we’re proud to celebrate our incredible team, because no matter your background, skills or experience, there’s a place for you here.

From the Oxfam shop floor to a creative collaboration 🎶✨
Rosie and Patrycja met while working in our Ringsend shop, now Rosie’s band Trinkets has just released an EP, and Patrycja designed the cover art 💿
“I needed someone with a specific style…you can kind of get that from how Patrycja dresses and presents herself.” – Rosie
“I think it was amazing. I'm really happy with it. It was just a pleasure to do.” – Patrycja

Oxfam isn’t just a place to work, it’s a place to connect, create and make something special. 💛
