Shoppers can expect a warm welcome from the team of staff and volunteers and the satisfaction of knowing their purchases contribute directly to the vital services we provide to local children and families.

The newest members of the Trinity Walk family!

Andrea Titherington-Kay, our head of retail operations, said: “We’re delighted to have become the newest members of the Trinity Walk family with the opening of our 15th shop. Trinity Walk has been a great supporter of Forget Me Not over many years, so it’s great to be taking this next important step in our partnership. A big thanks to them for all their support.

Our shops play a hugely important role in generating vital income for our children’s hospice, which is why opening this new store is so exciting. Whether you’re donating your unwanted stuff or you’re shopping for a bargain, every item sold helps us support local children and families right here in Wakefield. We look forward to seeing you soon!”

James White, centre manager of Trinity Walk, said: “It’s brilliant to see our long-term partnership with Forget Me Not move to a new level. Their new store and donation point here looks fantastic and will allow us to work even closer on the events we run to raise money for them, including the hugely popular Star Walk experience and free Santa’s grotto at Christmas.”
