Sister Bernadette's Charity Shop lesson

Welcome class to our charity day and I'm glad so many of you have attended this, our charity shop experience. Miranda, please put that down. Now, where do you think all of these items come from?
Yes Sarah. No, they don't come from M&S. Yes, I know M&S cater for the older lady but I don't think that is where all the donations come from.
Yes BHS is also popular and please don't refer to the older generations as biddies.
Now, what happens when the donations arrive at the shop? We'll done, yes they are sorted through. No, not to find the "good stuff and nab it" Thankyou Bethany. It is then washed or steamed. No, not because old people smell. We'll yes  Bethany I'm sure your grandmother tries hard to get to the toilet in time and please don't call it a 'dump'.



Who can tell me who the proceeds go to when the items are sold? And who uses the terminology 'Big Wigs' Miranda? We'll I'm sure your father wasn't referring to charity shop managers.
No, the proceeds go to the local charity they are representing. Who can think of any?
Yes, we'll done, the RSPCA, Help the Aged, Cancer research, Loros and The Heart Foundation. Your Grandmother Bethany? Well I'm sure your mother wasn't referring directly to your grandmother when she used the terminology 'charity case'.
Wow look at the time.
We have unfortunately ran out of time in this charity shop but we can move on to another one this afternoon. No Sarah not M&S.
