Charity shop takes over store front in Church Square Shopping Centre

Claire’s House is a children’s hospice which helps seriously and terminally ill children live life to the fullest, by creating wonderful experiences for them and bringing back a sense of normality to their families lives. Previously located in The Hardshaw Centre, Claire’s House charity shop raises money for the children’s hospice with donations from the public in the form of furniture, clothes and bric-a-brac. The Church Square store will be split over two storeys, spanning 2,636 sq ft. in total.

St Helens Star: The former Geek Retreat store Trading as a discount store, all clothing items will be sold at GBP1.99 or less, with the branding of the store reflecting this.

Claire’s House accepts donations, and shoppers are strongly encouraged to bring donations down to the store when possible. Taking over the ex-Geek Retreat unit, the Church Square store commences trading at 10am on Wednesday April 19, with the store adopting the opening hours of 9am to 5pm Monday to Saturday, with an exception of 10am to 4pm on Bank Holidays. The store will not open for trading on Sundays.

All current staff from The Hardshaw Centre store will relocate to the Church Square store retaining roles. Steve Brogan, centre manager for Church Square Shopping Centre, said: “We are thrilled to welcome Claire’s House to Church Square, keeping the charity going in St Helens and strengthening the retailer offer for residents. Claire’s House will be a great addition to the line-up of retailers at Church Square.”

Tracey Allwright, head of retail for Claire’s House, added: “Everyone at Claire House is really excited about the re-opening of our St Helens Discount Shop and we hope our valued customers will continue to support the shop to enable us to raise valuable funds so the charity can continue to be there for seriously ill children and their families when they need us most. To find out how you can support us further, please contact us at clairehouse.org.uk.” Councillor Kate Groucutt, cabinet member for economy, business and skills, added: “We know the people of St Helens Borough are incredibly caring and will continue to support this amazing charity and the vital work they do for children and their families in the region in their new home at Church Square Shopping Centre.”

The Hardshaw Centre was purchased by St Helens Borough Council in 2022, making way for a brand new bus station as part of the regeneration of the town.

Many other stores, along with Claire’s House, have relocated to Church Square including Bon Marche, Select, Infinite Occasions and more in the pipeline.
