I live in London, but I am born from the concrete jungle of the name Milton Keynes, most famous for its copious amount of roundabouts. When I went home last weekend we went to visit the furniture store of the charity my mum works for, Age UK.
This isn't your run of the mill high street charity shop, this is a huge warehouse on an industrial estate full of items donated second hand, or brand new from stores like Argos and Ikea. Like any charity shop there's hit and miss pieces, but plenty of gems both large and small.
Drop into the store 7 days a week and check out their website for opening times.

ReplyDeleteI hope so too! x
DeleteWow such a good idea! A great way for people to donate old furniture without having to pay and letting other people reuse them. Shame I live no where near Milton Keynes.

They have a few across the country, there may be one near you! Right next to this one is another one for a local charity too, so I think more charities are taking over warehouse space.
