Charity shop ‘returns home’ for pop-up this weekend

Hope House Tŷ Gobaith children’s hospices are bringing their Pop-Up Shop concept to Welshpool town centre.

And what’s more, they’re bringing it back to where it all began in the area – their former home of 27 Broad Street.

From Thursday, May 28 to close of business Sunday, May 31, they will be hosting an extravaganza of £1 bargains.

Pre-loved fashion, homewares, books and toys will all be available for just a pound.

Retail Area Manager for the charity, Mark Hunt-Gittins, said: “Following the success of our Oswestry pop-up, we’re delighted to bring one to Welshpool.

“It’ll be great to be back in the old store for a short stint after our move out to the retail park.

“The support we receive in the Welshpool area is second to none.

“There is a good understanding that at the heart of everything we do lies the care of children living with a life-threatening condition.

“We are looking forward to greeting familiar faces and new.”

Over the weekend, the pop-up store will not be able to accept donations – but the permanent store on the retail park will be open for business and donations as usual.

There are currently a range of volunteering opportunities across Hope House Tŷ Gobaith stores in Cheshire, Wales and Shropshire.
