A new St John’s Hospice sustainable charity shop has opened in Lancaster.
Separated into sections, there are themed areas, rails of clothing and an area where you can get a fresh cup of coffee to drink while you browse, or take a seat and catch up on information and events from St John's Hospice.
The new store on Kingsway is St John's way to illustrate what they do, with their charity shops, to help reduce landfill, provide quality products at affordable prices and create a fun and ethical shopping experience.
“It seems it's more important than ever to do what we can to reduce waste. For example, we are working with a local community art group, The Good Things Collective, to feature local artists work which has been created with second hand and/or waste items and showcase what can be transformed with some imagination and love.
“The cost-of-living crisis is hitting hard across the UK and for many, buying new simply isn't an option."We would like to remove the remaining stigma around shopping in charity stores by creating an inviting, visually pleasing space that provides good quality goods that don't break the bank, so that the old misconceptions around charity shopping are dismissed!”AdvertisementThe coffee area at the new sustainable superstore on the Kingsway retail park in Lancaster.
