About me / About business or organisation:

St Wilfrid’s Hospice Trading Company generates funds to support St Wilfrid’s Hospice by undertaking retail activities, a lottery and a construction and property project management consultancy. The hospice offers care for adults with advanced progressive life limiting diseases providing a 24-hour specialist care in-patient unit, a day therapy unit offering individual and group treatment and therapy, and a ‘hospice at home’ service to a population of 230,000 living in Eastbourne, Pevensey, Seaford, Hailsham, Heathfield, Uckfield and surrounding villages.
Our shops share a common theme throughout the Eastbourne area which is to keep a friendly, fun and warm atmosphere to shop in as well as continuing to provide great products to the public. From our array of furniture in Eastbourne to our gorgeous clothing selection As of recently we have new bought in goods, a furniture pick-up and delivery service, e-bay and amazon shops as well as a central hub that distributes our goods out to our stores daily. We pride ourselves on the quality of stock and feel highly appreciative of all the wonderful donations we have the privilege of giving new life too. At the moment, we are working hard to encourage customers not only to get involved by volunteering and donating but by becoming involved with Gift Aid. Our new loyalty cards are available come April 1st.
