Give and Take shop

[NewWave]

I noticed some weeks ago that the Give and Take shop on Lordship lane (near the EDT) had its lease up for sale in a local Estate agent.

I have been past the shop a few times in the last couple of weeks and has a 50% off sign in the window and hasn't been open.

Has it closed down?

Does anyone know whats happening?

Its my charity of choice to give my high end designer clothes to So i'd be grateful if anyone knows if they will be relocating.

As far as I know its the only charity shop where money from donated items (as opposed to the part donated items) goes specifically to Breast Cancer charities.

There was a thread on this shop when it opened, and if memory serves there seemed to be an issue with how much money actually went to charity?

It was some time ago, so I may be wrong.

I heard it is going to be a Question Air like there used to be in the village but no idea if it's true

I looked at their website and there they state how much goes to the charity.

I've never felt they were anything but genuine. Its sad to lose a shop dedicated to donating funds to breakthrough breast cancer and get another bland boutique.

I guess it could have been worse though and become a cupcake shop.

So sad about this.

But I guess the rents on LL made it unsustainable
