Pilgrims Hospices announces closure of Concession at Blue Diamond Garden Centre

We are sorry to announce the permanent closure of our concession within the Blue Diamond Garden Centre on the Stour Business Park at Chartham, effective Saturday, 13th January 2024.

Over the years, we have enjoyed a positive working relationship with Blue Diamond, who are the primary leaseholder, and we respect their decision to utilise the building for their own purposes.   We are actively seeking new premises in the local area and are committed to announcing our new location as soon as possible.

We express our sincere gratitude to all the dedicated staff and volunteers who have been an integral part of the shop, as well as to the local community for their support over the past 12 years.  Thank you for your generosity. It’s been a privilege to be part of your community.

While bidding farewell to our current location, Pilgrims Hospices Retail will not be leaving the area entirely.  We encourage you to continue supporting our hospice through our Furniture Shop, where donations are welcome.  The Furniture Shop is conveniently located at the back of Stour Valley Business Park, opposite the car wash.

We extend our heartfelt thanks for your understanding and ongoing support, and we look forward to sharing updates with you in the New Year. Until then, we would like to wish everyone a very happy Christmas and best wishes for the New Year.
