Wayne Madden

Cancer Research UK

"Good Shop, centrally located, £5 prices. I do find it tough to find anything here though - don’t often find things here and there isn’t a huge amount of stock rotation. Location of the shop can make it difficult for public to drop off donations - so presume that they’re more reliant on Cancer Research donations in general. There always appears to be lots of stuff in the basement but stock never really rotates on the shop floor."

Daisy Chain

"Good size, 2 huge floors. Upstairs furniture, household, curtains and cushions, bedding, pictures and electrical. Downstairs clothes and shoes, vintage section, kids section with clothes, toys and games. Prams and pushchairs. Vinyl and cds, dvds and books Some things are expensive, but otherwise good range of prices"

Revive Sunderland

"This place is so incredibly cheap. All clothing £1! However, clothing is not the focus in this shop - you will find incredible bric-a-brack and homeware here, media/books (books 50p, DVDs 10 for £1), and some of the most unusual items that you don’t find anywhere else. Totally recommend a visit!"
