By donating good quality items you’ll be helping people in your local community who are living with a chest, heart or stroke condition to get the help and support that they need, when they need it most.

CHSS stores in Carluke, Lanark and Strathaven are in urgent need of high-quality women’s wear, jewellery and accessories. The charity relies on generous donations of stock.

That’s thanks to the incredible donations the local community kindly drop-off.

“We really need donations of high-quality women’s clothing, jewellery and accessories so that our customers continue to discover hidden gems and one-of-a-kind must haves.

“If you have any items in your wardrobe that you loved but just don’t wear anymore, take the plunge to part with them, knowing that someone else could get the chance to love them too.
