Dropping off donated goods

We welcome donations of good quality, clean saleable items.

Donations can be dropped off any day during the shop opening hours. Please drive into the car park and you can find a loading bay round the back of the shop by the big blue shutters. You can enter the car park to drop off donated goods for up to 10 minutes only. Please keep this in mind or you may be fined.

If you wish to donate furniture or larger goods, please contact the shop in the first instance. Find out more about donating goods here.

We are delighted to welcome shoppers to re-use, recycle and re-love our sustainable, high quality, pre-loved garments at the Lewes charity shop.

Browse our broad range of clothes and accessories, furniture, toys, books, CDs, DVDs, Vinyl's, homeware and more, all at irresistible prices! Sales from the shop will go directly towards providing for the animals in our care.
