Barnado’s

After a much-​needed clear out last year I carted a couple of carrier bags of tops to this charity shop. Most of them were a bit misshapen and were only from Primark anyway, but meh. I figured someone may want them, if only to wear as a costume to a bad taste party or something. The guy working in the shop was really grateful for my donations, I filled in my name and address so that I could giftaid (so they would get the tax money rather than the government I think).
I returned to my freshly organised room feeling good about myself, and then forgot all about my old clothes. Until a couple of months later when I received a letter through the post from Barnado’s thanking me for my donations and telling me that they had raised 20-​something quid for charity.
That little touch, the fact that Barnado’s is such a good cause and the fact I picked up an as-​new Fat Face vest top for £2 from here are all reasons why I think that this is the best charity shop in Chorlton.
