To ensure the safety of all our customers, staff and volunteers, we have made some necessary changes to the way we operate our stores.
We ask that you:
All our shops sell a wide range of good quality items. This may include clothing, shoes, jewellery and accessories, china and glass, soft furnishings, CDs, DVDs, pictures, books and household goods.
We also sell a range of new goods, including greetings cards, wrapping paper and knitting wool.
Many of our shops additionally specialise in particular goods, so if there’s something special you are looking for, then these shops may be able to help. You can find individual shop details here.
We will happily refund items if returned with tags attached and a valid till receipt or proof of purchase, within 14 days to any Prospect Hospice shop.
