We are looking for volunteers who are free w/c 14 October for collections around the university and  Monday - Wednesday 21, 22 and 23 October to help with the logisitics prior to the sale and on the day of the sale to assist staff, and to assist students in choosing clothes. all proceeds from the sale will be donated to a local charity that Volun-tees currently supports.
