The countdown is on for the launch of a new Blythe House Hospice charity shop in the heart of Matlock.
Blythe House Hospice is delighted to reveal that they will be opening a new store located at 5 Bank Road on Saturday 3rd August. The store staff and volunteers encourage people to come along for the opening between 10am and 5pm, to enjoy and share the celebrations.
Offering high-quality goods such as ladieswear, menswear and homewares, kindly donated by the local community, the new retail outlet will be open seven days a week.
Hospice Retail Manager Marie Brown says, ‘We are delighted to be able to expand our retail offer into the Matlock area. By shopping with us our customers will help raise vital funds for services that Blythe House Hospice provide free of charge to people affected by life-limiting illness across North Derbyshire.’
Blythe House Hospice provides care for those with life-limiting illnesses in the comfort of their own home through their Hospice at Home and Roaming Car services that are there to support patients and their families in Matlock and across the whole of North Derbyshire.
The new shop will also serve as a base for Blythe House Hospice’s Roaming Car service nurses and healthcare assistants in the Matlock area, to help support reaching more patients who have an urgent need overnight.
The new shop is being supported by a fantastic team of volunteers, and more help would be very welcome.
If you are someone who has time to support Blythe House Hospice, please get in touch or find out more by visiting: www.blythehousehospice.org.uk/volunteer-opportunities or ask in store at any of our shops.
Marie says: ‘The incredible funds we raise through our charity shops across North Derbyshire would not be possible without the amazing support we get from our dedicated volunteers.
‘Our volunteers vary from all ages and come from all walks of life, but that’s what makes out team so great! They do not need any retail experience as training is provided. We have a range of roles available and look forward to welcoming more members to our team.’
