Another sorting session at the Community Hospice shop in Welling, and today’s turnout was Ivar and Ann. 3 hours spent in the seemingly endless piles of donated items, and we dug out a few trinkets. A single baby Yoda slipper, a Christmas tree tie and a pink cowboy hat among the nice surprises, and less said about the (stained) bad surprises the better. An impressive amount of things went from the unsorted to the sorted pile during our time there, all cheered on by some enthusiastic pigeons bringing the noise from above! Until next (or nest) time, pigeons!

If you need a 1940s dress or a 1950s drinks bar, then No 16 is the place to go. Opened in 2013 the shop brings together antique and retro furniture, homeware and clothing under one roof. The site also houses the main warehouse for sorting donations.
