Our shop first opened in June 2019 and, despite covid, we have since doubled in size and love to serve both the people of Leyland and our charities. We know our customers really appreciate our great deals and a warm, friendly welcome so why not pop in to 9 HOUGH LANE, LEYLAND, PR25 2SB! 01772 457343
Opening Hours: 9.30 - 4.30, Monday to Saturday

Our charity shop serves the communities of Leyland and South Ribble with quality second hand goods whilst raising funds for homeless children & young people across three charities operating at home and abroad.
In over four years of trading (incuding many months off because of covid-19) we have have been able to send ~£46,000 to our charities as well as covering all of the setting up costs of the shop! Thank you to all our volunteer staff, trustees, Maria our manager and you, our loyal customers, for making this possible.
We are very grateful for any donations and are always in need of more volunteers - training is provided.
New Day Church underpins the charity shop and we aim to provide a caring community both within and beyond our church walls where people find love, support and friendship. We believe in helping people fulfil their full potential and run many activities for that purpose. You can find more about us at www.newdaychurch.uk or on Facebook.

Charities we support
Pages about two of our charities have had to be temporarily unpublished because of the current situation but the following notes provide an update as of December 2023.
The Home of Hope in India continues to care for ~14 children. Sundar and Sarah, Founders and Directors, travelled to India in the summer of 2023 along with their own four sons to oversee and develop the home. The children are all thriving, progressing well at school and growing up fast! Sundar travels to India several times a year but in between times is in daily contact with the Home, staff and children via the internet taking all necessary actions to maintain the smooth running of the home and the care of the children.
The Bulabakulu Children's Village in Uganda and the school has closed with only a small number of children and families still living at the village. However, our support continues to help more than 30 children from the village with living support and financial assistance as they attend another local school (schools are all fee-paying). Support is channelled through AGLM (UK) who are in constant touch with their representatives in Uganda who process the funds for the support of these children. We are hopeful that the Bulabakulu school will restart at some point and it will be possible to continue supporting the other children who were previously part of the village. In the meantime we are confident that our support is making a huge difference to the lives of the children supported.
