View Full Version : Charity Shops in the City Centre crystaline 11-01-2005, 21:52 Hi, I have a lot of clothes, in very good condition. Does anyone know any shops in particular that would appreciate a few bags of a 20 year olds clothes. Thanks in advance Plain Talker 11-01-2005, 22:14 the bluebell wood charity shop (for the children's hospice!) would be very grateful for support... they are on king street, behind Primark in town, just below the entrance to castle house, near the tram stop. PT WallBuilder 11-01-2005, 22:56 If the clothes are in decent nick and not years out of date fashion wise most second hand shops will accept them gratefully. I've donated stuff to the PDSA shop at the bottom of the Moor on Cumberland street. Katya 12-01-2005, 08:40 Samaritans Charity Shop, Chapel Walk would welcome them. And by donating them to the shop you would help contribute to the costs of keeping the Samaritans Centre running 24 hrs a day, 7 days a week.... beansfeast 12-01-2005, 09:02 Talking of charity shops. Anyone noticed that the QuitSmoking charity shop on the road at the bottom end of the Moor ALWAYS has windows boarded up!? :confused: Must be some sort of venedetta or something, it always seems to be a different window, you would have thought they'd invest in wire mesh or something by now! :o Strix 12-01-2005, 10:26 Originally posted by Briano Talking of charity shops.

There are far more deserving cases out there. It's harkly up there with heroin addiction, is it? Why throw money at people who are spending theirs on slowly killing themselves on purpose?

There is also Bluebell Wood and Oxfam behind Primark. Cancer Research (I think) next to Somerfield opposite the town hall, and loads and loads down the Moor. And there's one (BHF?) on the left when you're about to cross the scary dual carriageway to get to the Moor too. I love charity shops! Then there's Broomhill, Hillsborough, and loads of other areas with great ones too! |
