Our second charity shop is OPEN!

Well, after just seven months of opening our first shop in St Austell, we have now opened the second shop.

After great discussions with the Trustee’s, it was decided that after the success of the first shop it would be a great idea to open another in a new area of Cornwall.

Our Area Fundraising Manager, Andy Jenkin,  based in Penzance is managing the shop on a voluntary basis along with his partner, his assistant manager Kevin and volunteers he has recruited in the area.

The shop is located at 84 Market Jew Street, Penzance, TR18 2LG.

We would like to say a huge thank you to our Trustee’s who have continued to support us in everything we do, and for their help in bringing the charity from strength to strength.

We would also like to say a big thank you to Heather and Lay Estate Agents (based in Falmouth) for covering our disbursements towards the legal fees of the conveyancing which has been completed free of charge by Hine Downing Solicitors of Falmouth. We are so grateful to these two companies for their support towards our charity.
