Oxfam Shop Kendal

Kendal is a historic market town and at Oxfam we offer an extensive range of selected quality second hand goods. We have a specialist books section and offer Oxfam's fair trade products which are purchased by locals, businesses and visitors. Situated in the valley on the banks of the river Kent just 8 miles from Morecambe Bay, Kendal stands at the entrance to one of the most beautiful parts of the country - the English Lake District and only 20 minutes drive to the Yorkshire Dales National Park.

Donations welcome

Oxfam shops are always delighted to accept donations of quality undamaged items that you no longer want. Alongside our industry leading recycling partners, Oxfam has its unique recycling plant where any textiles that are not sold in our shops are sent for recycling, helping reduce the amount of clothes that go to landfill.

You can now donate clothes by post - for free!

The easy way to donate clothing and accessories from home. Order your mailbag and return it to us for free to help raise money to fight poverty and reduce landfill.
