Weekends are for Charity Shopping and Cake
Second-hand buying is on the rise with people turning online to re-sell their old clothes.
Finding unique and long-lasting items has never been so easy as Crewe Town Centre is full of charity shops, holding hidden gems waiting to find an owner.
Donate to a good cause, while discovering hidden treasures to add to your wardrobe at. Here are just a few to explore:
– Sense, 27 Victoria Street, CW1 2PU
– YMCA, Unit C, Victoria Centre, CW1 2PU
– British Heart Foundation, Unit D, Victoria Centre, CW1 2PU
– St Luke’s Hospice, 64a Market Street, CW1 2HD
Combine with a stop at Starbucks or Rhode Island Coffee for a hot drink and a sweet treat to make the perfect, wholesome day out.
There are many reasons for buying used, like saving money by finding high quality pieces for a fraction of the retail price.
Plus, shoppers can buy items that show off their individual style with clothes that don’t follow current trends everybody already has.
It promotes circular fashion, which includes reusing, repairing and recycling items to help reduce the need for new resources and minimise waste.
Also, each charity has a different cause supporting positive change, that money from in store purchases goes towards.
Sense offers personalised support for disabled people with complex needs, while YMCA provides a fresh start and a better quality of life for young people. British Heart Foundation funds research into cardiovascular diseases and St Luke’s Hospice supports people living with life limiting illnesses in Mid and South Cheshire.
Rummaging through racks of pre-loved outfits and eating delicious cake – the perfect way to spend your weekend.
