Birmingham Hospice opened a brand new shop on Hobs Moat Road, Solihull on 12 June, to a crowd of excited shoppers.
The new shop offers employment and volunteering opportunities for local people and complements the charity’s existing shops in Dovehouse, Dorridge and Marston Green. Selling pre-loved and donated items from clothing, homeware, bric-a-brac, media and children’s clothes and toys, every purchase will help fund vital local hospice care.
Codie, Shop Manager and Kate, Assistant Shop Manager, cut the ribbon to officially open the store. Codie said: “I feel privileged to work for Birmingham Hospice, and am so excited we have opened such as lovely charity shop for the wonderful community at Hobs Moat. It has been a fantastic effort and all the team – the builders, contractors and volunteers have worked so hard to get the store looking its best.”
The new store can be found at 109 Hobs Moat Road, Solihull, B92 8JN – so do pay us a visit if you are local!
The shop will take on around 40 regular volunteers including shop floor assistants, merchandisers, stock sorters and till operators. Interested in volunteering at one of our shops? Find out more here
