Pilgrims Hospices’ brand-new Chartham Furniture, Fashion & Home store opened on Thursday 12 February 2026, and it didn’t take long for shoppers to fall in love.
The vibrant, feel-good space raised £2,914 on opening day alone, helping fund vital local hospice care.
This isn’t your usual pre-loved shop; it’s packed with hundreds of stylish finds, high street brands, creative treasures, and unique homewares. From everyday essentials to statement pieces, there’s something for everyone, plus a creative hub for crafters, sewists, and upcyclers hunting for inspiration.
Andy Brady, Shop Manager, said:
“Shoppers have been telling us how excited they are about the new store and the fantastic stock. There’s a real buzz here, and knowing it supports hospice care makes every bargain feel even better.”
Mandy Hawkett, Area Manager, added:
“Our community told us they missed having a local Pilgrims shop, and now it’s back, bigger, brighter, and better than ever. It’s a must-visit for fashion, homewares, and creativity alike!”
With plenty of parking, a friendly volunteer team, and stock that’s constantly refreshed, the new Chartham store is designed for browsing, discovering, and feeling good about every purchase.
Drop in at Unit 2/3 Stour Business Park, Chartham, Monday to Saturday, 9am–4pm, to see what everyone’s talking about, and maybe find your next bargain!
