Apologies but yet again we have to ask you to delay bringing in donations larger than 1 or 2 bags. You have been very generous over the past week and we are out of space! Thank you for your patience.

🚨 Please donate now to support Oxfam’s response to the devastating flash floods in Nepal: https://bit.ly/4zDyjSN. Devastating flash floods caused by the collapse of a glacier tore through Nepal’s Rasuwa District on August 26. At least 538 people lost their lives with hundreds more missing. An estimated 40,000 people are displaced. Villages were swept away and roads and bridges are gone. The only way in is by air.

Oxfam is in contact with our partners on the ground to assess what people urgently need. We’ve begun distributing hygiene kits to help people stay clean and safe from diseases that can easily spread in disasters like this.

Our response will be locally led through our partners and will likely include emergency food, clean water, sanitation and hygiene support, and shelter.

Thousands of people need urgent help. Please donate now to support communities most affected.

We have had a surprisingly large number of donations this week. Whilst we really appreciate your generosity, we are once again struggling to process them all as staff levels are low and space limited. For the next few days we can only accept donations of no more than 1 or 2 bags or boxes at a time. Thank you for your patience.

Please phone ahead if you wish to visit or bring donations over the next couple of days. Many of our staff are unable to come in due to a perfect storm of heat, injury, holidays, appointments etc and we may have to operate on reduced hours. Likely to be open 11-16.00 on Thursday and 9.30-13.30 on Friday. Saturday as usual 🤞🤞

Two powerful earthquakes have struck Venezuela, seconds apart. At least 235 people have died, and 4,300 people have been injured.

A state of emergency has been declared, with huge damage to homes, health centres and water systems. There are power, water and communications outages in some areas.

Our partners on the ground are working hard to determine what people most urgently need.
