Take on the British Heart Foundation's Charity Shop Challenge
We’re calling on shoppers to shop sustainably this Christmas to save money and raise funds for life saving research.
With a traditional Christmas set to take place this year, we are challenging the public to shop with a conscience by making heartfelt purchases from our shops to help fund ground breaking, life saving research.
This Christmas, as the UK’s largest charity retailer we want shoppers to explore our huge range of preloved treasures in both our shops and online, to help save money and give preloved items a new lease of life - while supporting a good cause.
Whether it’s a special gift for a loved one, a festive piece for your wardrobe or an update to your home décor, our 712 shops and stores are filled to the brim with a plethora of unique finds at affordable prices - from books, toys, and designer clothes to vintage furniture and retro homewares.
If you’d rather shop from the comfort of your own home, you can always explore our Depop shop or eBay site, for stylish steals, vintage pieces and one-of-a kind collectables.
Shop more thoughtfully this Christmas
Allison Swaine-Hughes, our Retail Director, said: “If you’re looking to shop more ethically when it comes to your festive shopping, our Charity Shop Challenge is the perfect solution. Our high street shops and online stores are packed with countless unique treasures waiting to be discovered, to make your Christmas purchases more heartfelt this year. And if you’re giving your home a festive spruce up for guests coming over, then there are also plenty of good quality furniture and homewares on offer too. Also, if you are having a clear out ready to make room for your kid’s new toys then please consider donating them to the BHF, so we can bring joy to a new owner.
“By taking on our Charity Shop Challenge, you’ll be saving money, saving the planet and saving lives. Every pound raised in our shops and online stores will help us support the 7.6 million people living with heart and circulatory diseases across the UK.”
We hope our treasure trove of secondhand ranges will inspire the public to shop more thoughtfully this Christmas and help raise much needed funds for the charity’s important work.
Through the reuse and recycling of donated items, we expect to save around 71,000 tonnes of goods from going to waste and help prevent 135,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions being released into the atmosphere.
To support us with your festive purchases, simply head to your nearest store or browse our online outlets - eBay and Depop. You can also share your finds on social media using the hashtag #BoughtAtBHF.
