our charity shops

We have four charity shops in central locations in Bognor, Chichester, Horsham and Littlehampton.   The shops provide vital income to fund the daily operation of Mount Noddy Animal Centre. Our shops are not your average charity shop. Each has its own big personality and we pride ourselves on selling high quality at great prices. 

Our daily changing stock always has fabulous clothing for women, men and children, fashion accessories, children’s toys, homeware, books, DVDs and you’ll often find designer and vintage treasures in our shops and much more!

Shopping at charity shops used to be for bargain hunters only, but that’s no longer the case. Locally, we are providing a choice of sustainable and preloved fashion, leaving fast fashion in the past.  The best part is when you shop with us, every penny of profit goes to help the animals at Mount Noddy Animal Centre. So every bag of donations you can give and every £1 you spend really does make a difference! 

Like every good community, at the heart of the shops is an amazing group of people – our shop managers, assistant managers and their incredible volunteers – who we couldn’t do without. We are always looking for volunteers who can spare a few hours a week to join our friendly shop teams.  To volunteer please complete the application form.

If you love animals, a fantastic bargain and helping create a more sustainable world why not join us by shopping, donating and volunteering?

donations always welcome

We always need donations of good quality clothing, handbags, shoes, toys, bric-a-brac, electricals, books, CDs and DVDs to keep our shops busy and the tills ringing!

Donating your preloved items will help the environment too.  We provide a sustainable and ethical option for you to dispose of your unwanted clothes, bric-a-brac, homeware, jewellry, books and electrical goods, selling them on to local shoppers.  

If donated clothing is torn or damaged and we can’t sell it in the shops, we will recycle it through our textile recycler raising funds for our animals.  So through reuse and recycling we help reduce the overall amount of waste that ends up in local landfills.  

You can drop off donations to any of our shops, 7 days a week:

  • Bognor shop, 2 The Arcade, Bognor Regis, PO21 1LJ
  • Chichester shop, 50 North Street, Chichester PO19 1NQ
  • Horsham Shop, 35 East Street, Horsham RH12 1HR
  • Littlehampton Shop, 70 Hgh Street Littlehampton BN17 5DX

OR

We accept donated goods for our charity shops at Mount Noddy Animal Centre.

start a donation collection centre

Please think of encouraging your work colleagues and friends to donate their preloved items to our shops. Why don’t you start a donation collection centre at work, club, school and encourage your colleagues and friends to bring in their preloved goods with them. We can then arrange a regular collection from you.

environmental benefits of charity shops

Not only are we helping animals but we are helping the planet by reusing and recycling:

Promotes re-use: Re-use is one of the highest points on the waste hierarchy. Our charity shops provide a sustainable and ethical option when they wish to dispose of unwanted clothes, books, furniture and other household items. Our first choice is always to ensure these items are reused by selling them on and raising vital funds for Mount Noddy Animal Centre.

Promotes recycling: The next most sustainable option is to recycle. If we can’t cannot sell an item, we recycle it via a textile recycler.  We are able to reuse or recycle the majority of donated clothing, books, electrical goods and bric-a-brac.

Reduces landfill: By boosting re-use and recycling, our shops help to reduce waste that ends up in landfill. In *2018/19, 339,000 tonnes of textiles alone were kept out of landfill as a result of charity shops.

Saves landfill tax: Councils in Britain have to pay *£94.15 in Landfill Tax for every tonne of waste they put into the ground – money they can retain to spend on services for local residents instead.

Reduces CO2: The reduction in landfill also makes a positive difference to the UK’s carbon footprint. 

Slows down fast fashion: Our charity shops provide clothing to people at a price they can afford and the option to buy preloved clothes. 

Keeps it local: When you donate goods or buy them from our charity shops all the profits help to fund Mount Noddy Animal Centre, rescuing, rehabilitating and rehoming local cats and dogs in need of care.

It is far and away the best charity shop in the town – each time I have visited they have been accommodating and go out of their way to be helpful
