Every day the sale of furniture and household items helps Eden Valley Hospice and Jigsaw, Cumbria’s Children’s Hospice to provide the highest standards of care, support and activities to people with life-limiting illnesses.

Since opening in 2015 the Eden Valley Hospice and Jigsaw Furniture Shop on Madford Retail Park, Carlisle, has proven to be a popular way for the local community to support the charity. Whether donating or purchasing items, the kindness and generosity of the community have helped to raise almost £1,000,000 for the local charity.

The shop is now appealing to businesses and the local community to donate items of furniture and household items to the shops. The Eden Valley Hospice and Jigsaw shop stocks a wide range of items and can be collected directly from your home.

Currently, the shops accept donations of the following:

• Furniture
• Soft Furnishings
• Mirrors and pictures
• Lamps and small electrical items
• Bric-a-brac

Unfortunately, the shop may not be able to accept some items due to health and safety and quality reasons. All soft furnishings need to include a fire certificate label.

Anne Hall, Retail Manager, said “Over the last 4 years the Furniture Shop has been a popular destination for people looking to purchase items of furniture and household items. Your unwanted items will help Eden Valley Hospice and Jigsaw care for local children and adults with life-limiting illnesses. Every donation to our charity shops counts.”
