Our Hythe location is a charity shop lover's dream. With more than ten charity shops on one high street, we're a must-stop shop for anyone looking to grab a bargain, furnish a new home, or donate some pre-loved goods ready for a new home.

You can find us next to the post office. We're very much a part of the local community, and our volunteers will be more than happy to chat to you about local events and the best place to grab a coffee.
