Have a Christmas clear out for charity

They are asking local people to donate any unwanted Christmas gifts and other pre-loved, good quality items.

Sonja Owens, Lisburn shop manager, said: “The income from our shops stays in Northern Ireland and helps pay for our many services for local cancer patients and their families. These include counselling, a family support service, stop smoking clinics, bra-fitting service for women who’ve had breast surgery, and art, music and writing therapies.

“We badly need to replenish our stocks to help with these important services that provide a vital lifeline to many people at one of the toughest times of their lives. We welcome donations of quality clothing, accessories, books, toys and brac a brac with open arms.”

“We need continued support from the local community to make donations to help meet the high demand.
