Kendal is a historic market town and at Oxfam we offer an extensive range of selected quality second hand goods. We have a specialist books section and offer Oxfam's fair trade products which are purchased by locals, businesses and visitors. Situated in the valley on the banks of the river Kent just 8 miles from Morecambe Bay, Kendal stands at the entrance to one of the most beautiful parts of the country - the English Lake District and only 20 minutes drive to the Yorkshire Dales National Park.
