Walking down the Cowbridge road, the unassuming window displays of Cancer Research UK shop although less eye-dazzling than other fancy shops, taking a few minutes to walk in, some lovely and compassionate stories can still be explored through its volunteers, donors and customers.
Cancer Research UK is a registered charity organization, just as its name implies, the organization raises money to help beat cancer and provides cancer information to the public.
This unpretentious donation shop is one of the 600 offline shops across the country, which accepts and sells local people’s donations to fund the life-saving research.
Volunteers are quite busy on Sunday morning, because they should take charge of classifying and cleaning the donations and setting them in the right place to attract more customers.
“I like working here, because I’m happy people come up to donate items, and what I do makes life meaningful,” said Leon, who is the volunteer with a learning disability.
“we provide volunteer job to these physical challenged people, it’s just for their self-aware. They feel they can do something, so they enjoy coming here,” said Jones, the shop assistant.
