Abingdon’s biggest ever charity shop opened at the start of February. They say money raised will go towards the “Help For Heroes” charity.

Open from Monday to Saturday between 10am and 3pm the charity warehouse sells furniture, clothes, books, CDs and DVDs, bric-a-brac etc. from off the Drayton Road.

The Charity shop is run by the Kathryn Turner Trust in Unit 3 of the Ashville Trading Estate. Up to about a year ago there were a few empty properties here. EBI foods, Bach Flower Remedies, Unique Distribution, and Debenhams had been well known names here.
But now it has filled up again. Another notable business is The Loose Canon Brewing Ltd. – Abingdon’s newest brewer.

The last two units have just been taken by Allparts, a retailer and distributor of Automotive Parts.

They have been fitting out and stocking the warehouse over the last week, and are in the middle of a publicity drive to let people know.
