The Sussex Beacon charity shops in St James’ Street and London Road have reopened this week so pop in and say hello. Both shops will be open Monday–Saturday, 9.30am–4.30pm.
The shop at 130 St James’s St, Brighton BN2 1TH specialises in books, DVDs and clothing. The Home Store at 72-73 London Rd, Brighton BN1 4JE also has a great selection of books and DVDs, but sells furniture, electrical items and homewares too.
Wayne Stone, trading manager, said: “It’s great to finally have our shops doors open again and trading to the public. We have brought in many new safety measures set out by the government and we have hand-sanitising stations and one-way systems in both our stores to ensure the safety of our customers and staff.
“More now than ever we need the support of the community through donation and visiting our shops to see what we have on sale.”
Donations to the Sussex Beacon charity shops are always welcome, but as they are not currently running pick-ups, donations can be dropped off at the London Road shop. If you want to speak to them in advance, call 01273 680264.
They are also on the look-out for new volunteers. Many of their volunteers are still self-shielding so can’t be in the stores at present. Wayne told us that they are all being missed and “as soon as it’s safe to do so we will have them back on the team.”
