Pop-up clothes shop set up to open in Llangollen this weekend in aid of cancer charity

Cancer Research UK is inviting locals and visitors to an Easter Clothes Swap in their first ever ‘Pop Up’ shop in Llangollen.

The shop on Oak Street will be open this coming Saturday and Sunday from 10am – 4pm.

Organisers will be setting up on today and will be accepting donations of your pre-loved clothes from then. The only rules are that they should be clean and in good condition. There will also be a Teenager Rail and Children’s Rail.

The idea came about to make use of an empty retail building (former book shop) in Oak Street whilst it is currently being marketed for letting by kind permission of the landlords.

Chair of Cancer Research UK’s Llangollen branch, Suzanne Evans said: “If you have been looking for an excuse for a spring clear out now is your chance and you get to donate to a great cause at the same time.

“We thought it would be great to use the empty shop during one of the busiest visitor weekends of the year.

“As we are only open for a short time it would be great if as many people as possible can support us and spread the word either face to face or via social media.

“We look forward to welcoming as many people there as possible over the two days we are open.”
