Story

Our dedication to traditional family values like quality, ethical retailing and excellent service doesn’t stop with our product selection.  Our Charities programme represents our commitment to give something back to the people who live and work where we do and we’ve joined forces with two brilliant charities to help us do just that. From helping to connect young people who have been affected by cancer with the support they need, to supporting local emergency services, these partnerships give us the chance to make a contribution where it really counts.

Broxbourne based charity Teens Unite Fighting Cancer is dedicated to improving the lives of young people aged 13-24, with cancer and other life limiting illnesses. The charity runs regular fun days out such as concerts, football matches, and art and beauty workshops. Teens Unite provides ongoing long term support for teens whether they are undergoing treatment or in remission. The charity has also recently opened the first specialist respite care centre for young people aged 13-24 in the UK. Their 'home with a heart' is a sanctuary where teens can stay overnight and benefit from an escape from their home and hospital environments. Alongside regular fun days out, Teens Unite also provides many opportunities for teens to gain valuable life and career skills. From internships, to fundraising schemes, to teen organised and run events - they are there to support teens throughout their journey and to help get them to have the confidence to go forward and achieve their goals.
