Items from the new Oxfam Unwrapped are now available to buy from Salisbury Oxfam. Christmas may be a little way off, but Unwrapped gifts are perfect for other occasions, such as Birthdays, too!

We thought, this year you might like to find out a little bit more about how we spend the money used to purchase Oxfam Unwrapped gifts to help those that need it most. So we’ve tracked down a video from Oxfam GB on just how the small gifts that make a big difference work:

If you can’t make the video work click here to read about the process instead.

This year, there are also some special edition Oxfam Unwrapped gifts featuring Flanimals created by Ricky Gervais.

Flanimals don’t live on our planet, but we’re sure they would want to help Oxfam Unwrapped sort it out, a gift at a time. Unfortunately, the Flanimals can’t really do that much. But these gifts will help people living in poverty to change their life. Rather than pay for one specific item, these gifts fund areas of Oxfam’s work such as HIV/AIDS education or advocacy and campaigning.
