This used to be my favourite chairty shop in deal, sadly it isn't no more. After, I got into a argument with one of the volunteers. I was also part of a conversation, with some volunteers where they were complaining about managment forcing them to do things they weren't happy with. They sell new plastic bag's, whilst binning the bags that are brought in with donation's. I did make a comment that they could simply sell the bag's that people bring in, instead of adding new plastic. Apparently, barnardo's the charity tell's them off if they do. I also know a homeless person, who goes though the bins of Barnardo's because they chuck £100's of donation's out every week. When I asked a volunteer, if I could give a donation's before they chuck things out. She lied to me saying they never chuck donation's, despite me seeing this myself. As all you have to do is go round the back of Barnabas on a Friday, when they chuck thing's out and I have seen the bin overfilling. Not a friendly chairty and honestly I believe Barnardos is the problem not the Volunteer's. I'am happy to talk about this problem further, as I see the owner has been replying to comment's . I just don't feel comfortable going back into the store after the argument I had with a volunteer
