Baroness


Oxted & Caterham local NCT charity held its Autumn Nearly New Sale at Oxted School and achieved a record attendance from mums, dads and parents looking to bag a bargain! The event run completely by volunteers opened its doors at 10.30am and was soon bustling with people looking for clothes, toys and equipment. The cafe was extremely busy offering a range of home-made cakes and a refreshing cuppa from the morning shop. Nearly New Sales provide parents with the opportunity to buy top quality clothes, toys and accessories for babies and toddlers in ‘nearly new’ condition at knock down prices! The next sale is at Oxted School on November 5 (10.30am)
