PDSA Description: Charity Retail Shop visit http://www.pdsa.org.uk/pdsashops.html For those who don't know, the PDSA is the UK's leading veterinary charity, caring for more than 350,000 pet patients belonging to people in need. They also provide free veterinary treatment to sick and injured animals and promote responsible pet ownership. PDSA stands for People's Dispensary for Sick Animals. As you will imagine, the fact that the PDSA are a charity means that they always need funding and one of the ways that they raise this funding is through their range of charity shops. You may have seen one of these shops locally and if ...  Read the complete review

One of the best charity shops round here is the PDSA and that suits me fine because I like giving to animal charities and when I can buy myself some more clobber at the same time that's a wicked situation! It's run by the People's Dispensary For Sick Animals and they are the same people who run the animal welfare charity, proceeds from the shop go to running the charity so it's a bit of a cycle. I take my unwanted clothes into the PDSA and also books or DVDs, they're not mad keen on taking toys because of all the health and safety labels so I don't take anything like that it because I'd hate the shop to have to pay to get rid of stuff they can't ...  Read the complete review

I walk past my local PDSA charity shop everyday on the way to work, and can't help but go in and have a look. I have a lot of love and respect for PDSA, and all the volunteers that help out in the shop to help raise money to support the PDSA veterinary surgeries. I have tried to offer my services before, but because i work shifts, unfortunately I cannot fit in any voluntary shifts around my hours at work, otherwise i would of loved to have helped, and offer my support to sick and injured animals. PDSA has 179 charity retail shops which sell a wide range of quality merchandise, this includes, clean clothing, books, gifts and bric-a-brac. They also ...  Read the complete review

The PDSA charity shop has to be one of my favorites to donate my junk to as they are for me a very worth while cause, as some of you may have noticed by now i am an animal lover so think that the work they do at the PDSA to help sick animals is worth supporting. Our local PDSA charity shop is nice to look at and is very well organised compared to other charity shops i have been in, they have a good selection of books which i purchase from regularly and donate to regularly as i love reading, they have a good selection of cds which is great when i am after something a little dated for my nan, they have a lot of videos in now as these are becoming less popular so ...  Read the complete review

our local PDSA is a very clean and well - decorated shop with no bad smells that you sometimes come across in charity shops (sounds awful but you know what I mean?!) To be honest I'm not a great animal-lover so it's the potential bargains or items of unusual quirkiness that I'm more concerned with as I'd rather to give priority to 'people' charities. The PDSA does have a lot going for it - items for pets (obviously!) and stationary with domestic pets on.... often found new items of clothing at real good prices and they sometimes stock super bedding the books are good and quite often they have a dump basket - 4 for £1 which are ideal to buy then re-donate ...  Read the complete review
