COVID-19 Update

Our shops are all currently closed in line with the current COVID-19 guidelines. We are not accepting donations to any of our shops and we are not currently collecting donations.
We are however still selling on eBay, and offering an on-line “call & collect” service via our social media pages.

Our house clearance service is also still operating and taking new bookings.

Thank you for your ongoing support and we look forward to seeing you soon.
