The Walcot Community Shop

Good afternoon.

The shop shall be closed from today 26th May.

This is due to the extreme weather we have been blessed with.

The shop shall re open on Monday 1st June at 9 30am.

We do not have air conditioning and the volunteers and customers are struggling.

We please ask that any donations people may have for the shop, are kept till we re open.

Kind regards

The Walcot Community/Charity Shop

We’re thrilled to share some exciting news from Walcot Community Charity Shop! 💙

Thanks to the generosity of our amazing customers — those who donate, shop, and support us every day — we’ve been able to donate a fantastic selection of brand new items to The Base in Swindon, with even more on the way! 🎁🙌

The Base located in Lyndhurst Crescent, Park North, is a brilliant new space offering drop-in sessions, creative arts, sports, life skills workshops, and mental health support for young people. It also provides advice on education, training, and employment — all part of Swindon Borough Council’s mission to Build a Fairer Swindon. 🌟

We're so proud to support this incredible initiative that’s all about helping young people grow, thrive, and prepare for the future.

🙏 A heartfelt THANK YOU to everyone who shops with us or donates — your kindness is helping to make a real difference right here in our community.
