Birmingham Hospice is excited to announce the opening of its brand new charity superstore in Solihull in February.
The charity delivers expert palliative and end of life care for people in Birmingham, Solihull and the surrounding area at both its Inpatients Units and in the community and relies on income from its shops to fund that care.
Located in the heart of Solihull town centre at Mell Square, the impressive 7,000 sq ft superstore will officially open at 10am on Tuesday 24 February. Shoppers can expect a wide range of quality, pre-loved items at affordable prices, with the store set to be one of the few charity shops in the area offering high-quality second-hand furniture.
The new superstore is also intended to be more than just a place to shop, with plans in the future for events and community meet-ups to create a welcoming space for local people.
Simon Mitchell, Area Manager (pictured here), said: We are delighted to bring a new Birmingham Hospice charity superstore to Solihull. This exciting opening not only provides residents with a fantastic new shopping destination, but more importantly supports the vital work Birmingham Hospice does for individuals and families across the local community.”
Jonathan Varley, Head of Retail at Birmingham Hospice, said: “We’re delighted to be opening our 26th shop and continuing to grow our retail presence in Solihull. Over the last five years the hospice has cared for over 1,600 patients from Solihull and each shop plays a vital role in funding palliative and end of life care for local people.”
The team have worked tirelessly to create an inviting, unique space where local people can have a browse and pick up some bargains.”
The hospice’s retail arm creates meaningful employment and volunteering opportunities for local people, while also making a difference socially and environmentally.
