Our charity shop

Over the past 10 years our shop at 101 George Street (opposite the old John Lewis building) has built a loyal customer base and a reputation as one of the best charity shops in the city. For shopaholics it’s a great place to bag a bargain. Need to declutter? Donate your unwanted items to us to give them a new lease of life.
