Midlands Air Ambulance Charity to open new shop in Market Drayton
Midlands Air Ambulance Charity is to open a new shop in Market Drayton in March, bringing a fresh opportunity for the local community to support the lifesaving service.
The new shop, located at Unit A in Frogmore Road, will offer a wide range of high-quality pre-loved items, including clothing, furniture, accessories, homeware, toys, books, and more.
Once open, the shop will be welcoming donations of good-quality second-hand goods to help stock the shelves and support its lifesaving operations. A free furniture collection service will also be available within a ten-mile radius of the Market Drayton store.
The opening hours for the Market Drayton shop will be 9am – 5pm Monday to Saturday and 10am – 4pm on Sunday.
Fletcher Smith, regional area manager for Midlands Air Ambulance Charity, said: “We are thrilled to be opening our latest shop in the wonderful community of Market Drayton. Each new shop strengthens our ability to fund lifesaving missions, and we’re excited to welcome local supporters — whether they’re donating items, volunteering, or simply popping in for a browse.”
The new store is looking for volunteers to help in a range of roles. Anyone interested can find out more about volunteering with the charity at midlandsairambulance.com/volunteer.
Alison Hill, volunteer manager for Midlands Air Ambulance Charity, added: “Our volunteers are at the heart of everything we do. Their dedication ensures the success of our shops and events, which directly supports our lifesaving missions.
"We encourage anyone interested to come along, meet the team, and discover how they can make a meaningful difference. There are many ways to get involved — from sorting donations and assisting with sales to providing excellent customer service or helping at fundraising events throughout the year.”
