Support our Charity Shops

Having a de-clutter? Moving house? Unwanted Christmas or birthday presents? Why not donate your unwanted items to our charity shops?

Supporting our charity shops is a great way of helping your local RSPCA and animals in need, donating or buying, either way your generosity will make a real difference.

All money raised from our Charity Shops goes directly to the Chesterfield Animal Centre

We sell all manner of good quality preloved items at our charity shop; clothes, handbags and shoes, books, videos, DVDS, CDs, toys, bric a brac, electrical items – the list goes on!

The running of our shops wouldn’t be possible without our wonderful volunteers. If you would like to find out more information about volunteering, please visit our volunteer page or call in to our shop for a chat.

Our charity shops rely on donations of goods from members of the public, so please do consider us if you’re having a spring clean! Check out our donation guide to find out what items we can and cannot accept.

We may be able to offer a local collection service for certain donations, subject to driver availability. Please email or telephone us on 01246 273358 so we can discuss your donation with you.

Please email or telephone our main Charity Shop on 01246 887888 or Animal Centre on 01246 273358 if you have any queries about your donation before bringing items to us.
