FAKE BANK NOTES

Sorry we are no longer accepting £50 notes in our shops

We are sad to say that our shops have recently been hit by a number of fake bank notes. This has lost the Charity a lot of money and caused understandable upset to the shop teams involved.

All incidents have been reported to the police.

As a result, we are unable to accept £50 notes as payment.

We are also unable to accept bank notes of any denomination if we are not certain are genuine.

We apologise for any inconvenience that this may cause.

Thank you for your understanding.

🎃Our shops are getting into the spooky spirit🎃

This Halloween we are supporting the Charity Retail Association's campaign with our creative window displays. "From costumes and decorations to crafts and repurposing, charity shops are great places to find spine-chilling bargains." Pop into our shops to find all you need to create a frighteningly good outfit this Halloween🧙‍♀️

This week we are celebrating in all our Florence shops!

Charity shops are a vital part of shopping sustainably - helping to extend the lifetime of outfits for multiple owners and reducing the need to create new items. Over the last year, our shops have kept over 303,738kg of textiles out of landfill and we intend to see that number grow and grow.

Be part of the sustainable shopping movement - donate and shop with us.

☀️We will be open for shopping and donations on Bank Holiday Monday (10am-4pm). Pop in and find your new addition to your summer wardrobe 👗👒👕
