Barnardo’s

In comparison to the other charity shops on the main street, this one is quite small. I came in on the hunt for a cheeseboard (specific, I know) but actually found one, inside for the price of £4.
There are clothes and some brick a brac on sale. There isn’t much space to wander around and what you see the second you walk in the door is what is on offer. I was quite happy with the items I bought and found them to be reasonably priced, but would also recommend checking out the adjacent charity shops which would have more stock available.

I like this shop for several reasons; it is bright, spacious and well-​organised with a small vintage section at the back of the shop. High end designer items are on a special rail which saves you hunting for the real goodies.
In my opinion, this shop is over-​priced. It wasn’t the designer rail that had me gasping, rather the high street brands. I just found the pricing inconsistent; some of it alright, a lot of it unreasonably high.
The focus here seems to be on hanging items as there’s a lot less books, CDs DVDs and bric to browse. I enjoy having a look at these just as much as the clothes so I was disappointed that there was so much of a focus on clothing. Whilst this isn’t my favourite shop in town, I will always pop in on my charity shop wanderings.

Agreed with Julia, this Barnardos is very colourful indeed.
Situated in the busy region of Stockbridge, this Barnardos seems to be packed with lovely clothes of high quality, a good number of books and fun second hand items.
The store was nicely decorated, with the changing room being decked out in loads of re

This is definitely in the more colourful range of charity shops. Even as far as Stockbridge charity shops go, and from my experience, their shops are really quite colourful.
The stuff you can get here is mostly clothing and little else. But the quality of the clothing is pretty fantastic (as far as second-​hand clothing goes, which is pretty high up). And the decoration in the shop is also very snazzy. I kept itching to buy absolutely everything in sight. Most particularly, the stuff that wasn’t even on sale (that always happens, though, doesn’t it? Particularly in Armstrong’s, where they keep the best to themselves).
Though there may be about a million or trillion (I’m into hyperbolising) charity shops in Stockbridge, this one’s definitely worth having a peek in. Even if you have absolutely no intention of buying anything. Though, I warn you, you may become sorely tempted.

This Barnardos Charity Shop disguises the fact that it is a charity shop very well. From the signage out front to the tiny little store offering strictly vintage clothing at non-​charity shop prices.
If you like vintage clothing, then you will love this shop. They have a good stock of vintage jackets, scarves, dresses, mens clothing, shoes etc. The shop itself is tiny and quirky, complete with staff decked out in vintage clothing. However if you are like me and think vintage is pretentious and just an excuse to hike up the price of someone’s old clothes, then you probably won’t like it.
At least the money from the over priced clothing is going to charity.
