Dove House Hospice Joins Secondhand September with 50p End of Season Sale

Dove House Hospice is participating in Secondhand September with a special end-of-season 50p sale, at our Whitefriargate shop in Hull,?starting this Saturday, 21st September.

This promotion will continue throughout the month, with all clothing items priced at just 50p, offering an unbeatable opportunity for shoppers to refresh their wardrobes while supporting a worthy cause.

Jennifer Rowan , Head of Retail at Dove House, said: "We're thrilled to be part of Secondhand September with our 50p end of season sale. This campaign aligns perfectly with our values of sustainability and community support. By offering affordable, pre-loved clothing, we're not only helping our customers save money, but also contributing to a more sustainable fashion cycle. Every purchase directly supports the vital hospice care we provide across Hull and East Yorkshire.

“The 50p sale will continue at our Whitefriargate shop while stocks last, and we invite everyone in Hull to come down, browse our collection, and enjoy a friendly shopping experience.”

Secondhand September, an annual awareness campaign initiated by Oxfam, encourages consumers to buy only second-hand clothing for the entire month. This initiative aims to challenge the culture of overconsumption and highlight the environmental impact of the fashion industry.

The fashion sector is one of the world's most polluting industries, with an estimated 11 million items of clothing ending up in UK landfills each week. By choosing second-hand options, customers can help reduce waste and the demand for new clothing production.

The Whitefriargate shop, known for its diverse range of pre-loved items, is expected to see increased foot traffic during this promotion. Shoppers can find unique pieces to enhance personal style while contributing to a circular economy.
