Donate to our shops

St Catherine’s is incredibly grateful for the wonderful donations of pre-loved clothes, accessories, toys, homeware and furniture that we receive.

If you’ve had a clear-out and would like St Catherine’s to benefit, you can drop off your unwanted items at any of our shops. Click here to find your nearest one.

You can also drop them off at the hospice Donation Centre, situated around the back of the hospice in Lostock Hall. It is staffed from 10am until 4pm seven days a week and there is also an out of hours donation drop-off point which can be accessed 24/7.

Please note that we have taken precautionary action to protect the safety of our communities and, in line with Government recommendations, have closed all of our charity shops and Donation Centre until further notice. Thank you for your understanding.
