Welcome to the fine people of the St Francis Hospice who have opened their charity shop in the former Starbucks on Wanstead High Street. It’s an excellent organisation that, sadly, too many Wanstead families have reason to be grateful for, and we naturally wish them luck in their new fundraising venture.
So it seems a bit churlish to mention it, but we were told it was going to be a furniture charity shop, not just another second hand clothes & shoes shop, and that’s a bit disappointing…
