COVID-19 SHOP CLOSURE
Sadly we have taken the decision to close our two charity shops from the end of this Saturday 21st March. It’s absolutely the right thing to do as the safety of our staff, volunteers and shoppers comes first. Some of our volunteers are elderly, and especially vulnerable to the infection, and we are acutely conscious of our responsibilities towards them. We have taken measures to secure the premises during the period of closure. We very much intend to re-open both shops and look forward to seeing you all again soon.
We have two Harington Charity Shops selling clothes, shoes, bags, jewellery, books, children’s toys, CDs, DVDs and bric-a-brac.
As well as raising vital funds for Harington, our shops provide valuable work experience for some of our learners whose goal is a career in the retail sector.
The Harington Charity Shop on Archway Road is open seven days a week:

The new Harington Charity Shop on Hornsey High Street is open six days a week:
