  Okay, I know this is all for a good cause and that however the prices in here are sky high and they dont stock the best second hand goods. They have a wedding section upstairs that sells dresses and shoes, which you must ask permission to go and see, you will be led up a narrow staircase and shown into a room of the most shocking eighties style, overpriced bridal wear I have ever seen! Prices do not reflect the fact they are second hand and dated. Staff appear to 'hover' in the actual shop which is very offputting when browing so I tend to give this one a miss!

  This is quite a large shop in comparison to other local charity shops. About half of the shop is devoted to selling new goods such as fair trade ornaments and trinkets and other bits too, with the other half stocking the usual second hand goods that most charity shops do. I find it a bit too pricey in here to be honest. I know it goes to a good cause, but as the saying goes - charity begins at home, and buying from a charity shop should not only benifit the cause it's profit goes to but also the customers who buy from it at lower prices than other shops.
