Katharine House Hospice open new shop in Banbury

The shop, which is located on 8a Hill View Crescent, is the charity's second outlet in town and will cater to the local community, offering a whole range of second hand goods.

Opening today at 10am, the store will be managed by Paula Putt, who has worked for Katharine House for more than 17 years as the shop manager for the hospice’s Chipping Norton store.

She said: "Our shops are the face of Katharine House and are essential to help raise vital funds so the hospice can continue the good work it does in the community. The Hillview shop is bright, modern, and friendly, with a little bit of everything for sale. Plus, it has easy access, as we have a parking bay right outside the front of the shop.

"It will be a new challenge for me to set up and running a new shop within the Hillview community. I have been privileged to work with some amazing, dedicated volunteers and paid staff, past and present, and equally generous donors and customers who, over time, have become friends and regular customers."
