“As a matter of due diligence we review each of our shops every 12 months to see how they are performing. Sadly, it is no longer viable for the shop to continue trading.

“We greatly value our staff and volunteers and would like to thank everyone who has worked at the Age UK Carfax shop, as well as the local community, for their help supporting the shop and in turn supporting older people by generating much needed funds.

“Age UK continues to run another Age UK shop in Billingshurst, which can be found at 5 Laura House, Jengers Mead, RH14 9NZ, where people can continue to support the charity by donating and buying quality clothes, accessories, books, DVDs and much more.

“People looking for information and advice, as well as general support, can call our free national helpline on 0800 169 6565 or visit www.ageuk.org.uk to find their nearest local Age UK.”
