Highway Hospice currently has 3 shops. Our main shop and warehouse in Pinetown allows easy access for dropping and shopping. The Hillcrest shop opened many years ago and has subsequently moved to a bigger shop near Richden’s Spar. A group of dedicated volunteers opened a little Home Industries Shop close to the Highway Hospice in Sherwood and later moved the operation onto the premises of the Hospice.
From these small beginnings the Charity Shops have grown into a thriving business, thanks to the donations from the community and business sector. All profits made by the shops go to Highway Hospice, assisting us to provide quality care to the terminally ill.
The receiving depot which operates from the premises of the Pinetown shop enables us to sort the donations before being sent to the various shops to sell. Each shop has a dedicated manager and a team of volunteers who help in serving behind the counter and keep rails and shelves tidy. The receiving depot is run by a depot manager and volunteers who sort bags of clothing, bric-a-brac, books etc.
We are always grateful for good quality donations of clothing, kitchenware, linen, bric-a-brac, crockery, books, records and furniture – should you be able to assist in any way, please:
Telephone our Receiving Depot on 031-7092647 to arrange collection of the goods from your home
Or
Email your address and telephone number to the Depot Manager at robbie@charityshops.co.za and we will arrange collection.
Or
Drop off your donation at the Depot in Pinetown
