An Oxford charity shop is facing closure because of a shortage of volunteers.

The Save the Children shop, in High Street, has long been popular among bargain hunters, and is a key source of funds for the charity.

But the shop, which featured in the last episode of TV's Inspector Morse -- The Remorseful Day, could be forced to close unless it can recruit more helpers.

Nora Dennison, Save the Children's local shops manager, said: "Several of our existing volunteers have retired recently and we're not sure how we're going to cope without extra help. "

Pictured in the shop is volunteer Eileen Coles, who has helped there for more than 20 years.

Anyone who can help should visit the shop or call 01242 678360.
