Oxfam Bold Street has closed its doors temporarily. The Liverpool flagship store<\/a> sells second hand clothing, shoes, books, and other items, with the profits going towards fighting poverty and helping people in crisis around the world.<\/p>\n

The Liverpool flagship store is set to reopen with a “bold new look and bigger fashion<\/a> focus”. Situated on one of Liverpool\u2019s best known streets, the charity shop is known for selling second hand high street clothing.<\/p>\n

The ECHO has previously<\/a> reported how the Bold Street store<\/a> sells high street options at a fraction of their price, with one reporter finding \u00a3158 Reiss top for \u00a313.<\/p>\n

Head of Store Development at Oxfam GB, Matthew Burgess-Evans, said: “This isn\u2019t just a shop refit\u2014it\u2019s a full reset.<\/p>\n

“We\u2019ve created a space that speaks to Oxfam\u2019s values\u2014modern, bold, and built around community and climate action. Bold Street has always had a strong student following, and we\u2019re excited to welcome a whole new wave of customers this Freshers Week.”<\/p>\n

The store will reopen on Saturday, September 13.<\/p>\n

The newly refurbished shop will feature a large, expanded clothing section packed with high-quality donated pieces and standout vintage finds.<\/p>\n

It will also have a refreshed media and book area, described as being “perfect for casual readers and curious minds alike”.<\/p>\n

Oxfam will add “striking” in-store messaging and have a retail environment “designed to reflect sustainability, diversity, and collective action”.<\/p>\n

Oxfam was founded in 1942 as the Oxford Committee for Famine Relief in response to the Allied blockade during the Second World War and famine in Greece.<\/p>\n

After the war, its mission then worked to address global poverty, leading to the establishment of its first charity shop in Oxford in 1948.<\/p>\n

Today Oxfam GB is part of a confederation of 21 Oxfams all over the world.<\/p>\n
