Got any autumn clothes lingering in your wardrobe? 👀

Help us get our shops ready for the season ahead by donating your unwanted autumn and winter clothing to your local British Red Cross shop.

That coat, jumper or pair of boots could make a real difference! 🍁🍂

Every donation counts, thank you ❤️

A message of connection, kindness and hope. ❤️

As Charlie Mackesy shares: "I am sure wearing the shirt will mean different things to people. For me, it is a gentle expression of something simple, but deeply important: that we're all connected, and that kindness and compassion for all those facing crisis really matters, perhaps now more than ever."

A powerful reminder that compassion can bring people together when it's needed most.

Hello Sunday shoppers! We are now open on Sundays and are looking forward to seeing you between 11.00 am to 4.00.

One of my volunteers works in intensive care and has been unable to rejoin us since the pandemic began. Her account of the strain that the hospital is under because of the increase in people needing ICU care is heart wrenching.

Please please don't become one of those patients and don't cause anyone else to be one. Many people are asymptomatic and it might be you. Hands Face Space and we'll beat this virus

28/11/2020

Open again on Wednesday at 11.00 and looking forward to seeing you!

04/11/2020

We hope to see you again early in December. Just a plea not to leave any donations outside either the front or back doors until we reopen as there will be no-one who can accept them.
Thanks, stay safe, and see you soon!
Claire, Rebecca and the volunteer team
