Spike in donations from people leaving island
Jersey charity shop experiences surge in donations as people leave the island, prompting increased demand for goods and house clearances. Care and Relief for the Young (CRY) Jersey calls for more volunteers to help manage the influx. The shop is also participating in Second Hand September to promote sustainability and reusing items, with a focus on attracting young people interested in vintage fashion amid concerns over the cost of living.
