The Walcot Community Shop has been named by South Swindon MP Sir Robert Buckland as his charity of the week.
The shop welcomes donations of good quality items
Based in Sussex Place, the charity has been supporting the people of Swindon for over 20 years, selling good quality second-hand clothing and furniture.
Profits are used for a fund which helps people in the local community.
Sir Robert said: "Over the years, this wonderful charity has provided invaluable support to residents here in Swindon, at a time when they have needed it the most.
"This has included paying the costs for a local lady who had to travel to Oxford to visit her terminally ill husband, and paying for a child with terminal cancer to visit Disneyland.
"The Walcot Community Shop welcome donations of good quality second-hand clothing and furniture, and they and are always on the lookout for members of the local community that they may be able to support. Why not pay them a visit?"
