Shop News
Support for our charity shops in Burnley and Pendle has been overwhelming in recent years, resulting in them becoming vibrant, integral parts of the communities they serve, as well as providing vital funds for the work of Pendleside Hospice. Led and staffed entirely by volunteers, the shops offer cheerful service to the many customers who shop with them day in, day out, not only to scoop a bargain but to catch up on community news and to support the hospice.
Much of the success of the shops is down to the excellent quality of goods that are donated, sorted and then resold. Support for the shops is such that many, many bags full of goods are donated each day.
Behind the scenes our volunteers, mostly ladies in their retirement, sort the bags and price up as many goods as possible to sell. Many items that cannot be sold are sent for recycling which also raises money for the Hospice.
We would like to thank all members of our community who support the Hospice by donating goods to our shops. Although not wanting to refuse anything that could raise funds, there are some items that the shops can neither sell nor recycle which inevitably have to be treated as refuse and we have to pay for disposal.
These goods include mains electrical items, large items of furniture, prams and buggies, child car seats, unsold car boot bric-a-brac and the remains of house clearances.
The shops are ready, willing and able to receive all types of clean textiles and shoes, household goods in saleable condition, books, games, toys, records, tapes, CD‘s and DVD‘s, knitting patterns and haberdashery, small items of furniture and bric-a-brac in good condition.
It helps enormously if textiles can be kept separate from the rest and all of these can be converted into money for the benefit of terminally ill people in Burnley and Pendle. Please check with your local Hospice charity shop if you are unsure about any goods that you may wish to donate.
If you would like to organise your work colleagues to bring in their unwanted items we can arrange to collect them all on one day. Give us a call in Fundraising if you would like to arrange a collection Tel: 01282 440120.
