Wigan & Leigh Hospice

Building isn't the newest, window displays could do with a spring clean and a bit of an injection of pzazz and the shop floor isn't "Spit & polish" shiny. The stock range isn't great either - I went in to drop some clothes off for them and to hopefully pick up a nice 50inch LCD TV (And a wall bracket).........Guess what? They didn't have any 50inch TVs in at all. I even said that at a push I could just about manage with a 44inch TV AND that I was willing to stand it on a TV unit rather than wall mount it.....Didn't even have a 44inch in either. I told them I'd have to take my crisp twenty somewhere else. And remarkably they didn't kick me out, allowing me to peruse all the stock items that weren't big TVs but were when new, financially out of reach for some families and some old folk. And now thanks to the work, the time and the effort the staff members put in, these, often essential items are a fraction of the price when they were new. I know it's not free. It's not a charitable "Hand out" service like a soup kitchen for clothes but as I said a lot of people would just do-without. They may end up without a warm coat for winter. And because of these people here, because of their hard work and organisation that warm winter coat is affordable now and no doubt making the life of the wearer just a bit better. How could I not do 5 stars? (Despite the lack of big TVs)

Good for what it is, not much clothes my style. Affordable and not bad overall
