Charitique Shop

You can now shop from 9am to 5pm Monday to Saturday at Kenward Trust's first charity shop in Camden Road, Tunbridge Wells, which offers not only good quality second hand clothing and household items but also a selection of recycled items made by residents on site at Yalding. The residents currently make a range of wooden craft items, ranging from wildlife boxes through to trendy signs, and these are on sale in the shop.

One of the strategic aims for the Trust is the development of social enterprise. The acquisition of this first retail shop is an exciting development as part of the vision of holistic integrated recovery journey from detox to gainful employment. Additionally it will help to raise valuable income for the charity so we can continue our life saving work.
 
Head of Social enterprise, Peter Jones said:
 
“Kenward Trust has always been very active in communities across West Kent providing advice and support to those affected by substance misuse, homelessness or social isolation. Our new shop will be an opportunity for us to continue this tradition of engagement within a vibrant and eclectic district of Tunbridge Wells. We hope that this will be the first of many! “
 
The shop constantly requires donations of clothing and quality household bric-a-brac and so is appealing for anyone with unwanted items to phone 01622 814187 to find out their closest drop off point or email Peter.jones@kenwardtrust.org.uk
