Charity to open fifth Gloucestershire shop

Later this month, the Great Western Air Ambulance Charity (GWAAC) will open the doors to its fifth shop in the county.

The new shop will be opening in Brockworth on Tuesday February 25 at 9:30 am, in the former Cakeee Box, previously Lloyds Bank, at 7 Court Road. It will be GWAAC's tenth shop in the wider region.

The new Brockworth shop is conveniently situated between GWAAC's two Gloucester shops and Cheltenham shop, giving the charity a bigger reach across the county and more opportunities for people to supports its lifesaving work.

To celebrate the opening, GWAAC is offering customers their cheapest item for free when they buy four or more products.

Sam Hyde, shop manager at Brockworth GWAAC, said: "Our new shop offers local people a full range of pre-loved items from gifts to clothes to bric-a-brac. And it sits right in the heart of a community that sees the value in buying second-hand goods, reusing and recycling."

Jason Webster, head of retail at GWAAC, said: "The new shop will help raise awareness of the charity's lifesaving work in Brockworth and raise much-needed funds to keep the crew flying and ensure that they can continue to be there for those in need. I'm hoping it will encourage people to shop local and support their high street. It will also mean that GWAAC becomes a household name for the communities we serve."

The shop will be open Monday to Saturday from 9am to 5pm.

Local people can drop off any donations of good quality clothing, accessories and bric-a-brac at the shop during the day.
