Our Shops

Opening Doors to Change Lives is also an integral part of the philosophy of our charity shops. Whilst they sell clothes and furniture they are also places where people gain confidence and a sense of family. They are very much a ‘community centre’ for many who find the friendship and interaction with our staff a really positive experience.

Friendships are built within the shops and our staff make every effort to ensure customers feel welcome. The shops also provide volunteering opportunities and for some this has been a means of growing in confidence and gaining experience that has enabled them to step back into the workplace.

Currently we have five shops in the borough open 9.00am to 5.00pm, except Sundays and Bank Holidays. As well as selling to private individuals we work alongside Southend Borough Council with the Essential Living Fund (ELF) scheme and the vouchers can be redeemed at any of our shops. We can also process applications for ELF for those who are moving into housing with no access to furniture.

We are able to deliver items of furniture to your home at a local delivery charge and are happy to receive any donations of good quality saleable items you may have for any of our shops.
