LATEST NEWS ~ WALES, CIRCUIT BREAKER LOCKDOWN
In line with the current restrictions from the Welsh government all our Nightingales shops in Wales and our Reuse shop at HWRC (recycling centre) Bryn Lane Wrexham will be closed until Monday 9th November 2020. Our shops in Oswestry, Whitchurch and Ellesmere will remain open during this period. In the meantime, if you live in Wales and still wish to shop with us you can do so via our eBay shop: https://www.ebay.co.uk/usr/nightingalehousehospice.
We are very grateful for all the donations to our shops but during this period we are unable to accept donations at any of our stores in Wales. Please do not leave any donations outside our shops when they are closed. We would appreciate if you could hold on to them until after Monday 9 November. We advise that it is best to call your local store before bringing along your donations to make sure that we have room to accept them.
During this period, we will not be making any collections from, or deliveries to, customers’ homes. However, if you would like to book a free furniture collection ready for week commencing 9th November our phone line: 01978 262589 will be open from 2nd November Monday – Friday, 11.00am – 3.00pm.
We thank you all for your support during this time and look forward to reopening our Wales shops soon.
Charity shops
“Due to the overwhelming generosity of our supporters, our Regent St shop is currently full to capacity with wonderful donations. This means that unfortunately for the foreseeable future, we will have to stop taking anymore in until they have processed the back log. If you have made a booking to drop off, this will still be honoured.
“All other stores are taking donations daily during trading hours but please phone ahead to avoid disappointment, as they have limited space to store them.”
“Following an announcement by the Welsh Government last week we have had to amend our health and safety guidelines across our shops in Wales. Since our shops have reopened, all of our staff have worn face coverings in Wales and England. However, it is now mandatory in Wales as it has been in England for our customers and donators to bring and wear a face covering whilst shopping or donating with us (unless you are exempt.) As always, we thank you for your support during this difficult time and for helping us keep everyone safe. – Katie Roberts, Head of Retail.”
Here at Nightingale House our Charity shops are the lifeblood of the local community and the catalyst to successful fundraising. Our shops provide much-needed funds so that the Hospices can continue to provide free specialist care to our patients who are living with life-limiting illnesses such as cancer.
Our shops provide quality goods (clothes, furniture, electrical goods and bric-a-brac) and you really can pick up a bargain. They provide a base for eager volunteers of all ages to ‘give something back’ and to make lifelong friendships. Most importantly they form a bond between the charity and their local community.
How to donate
We offer a FREE collection service for suitable donations of furniture or larger items. Please telephone (01978 262 589) to arrange a collection or alternatively email regentstreet.shop@nightingalehouse.co.uk.
We are always grateful for the donation of quality second-hand items including clothes, household items, toys, books, CDs and DVDs. Unfortunately we cannot collect these items but you can deliver them to any of our shops.
