The Prince Of Wales Hospice Shop - South Elmsall

Visited the hospice shop for the first time in a while and found out that they weren't accepting donations again... they had the courtesy to put up two signs saying this, but have chosen to do so whilst the only other remaining charity shop in South Elmsall; the British Red Cross, is closed for refurbishment until the start of September. I looked inside at the amount of stock on shop floor and then saw the pricing. I've heard many complaints from people whilst shopping at the British Red Cross; ranging from the poor/non-existent customer service to the extortionate pricing of certain items. I've also been told not to volunteer there as, those who do, get treated like rubbish and often leave within a few weeks of starting. I've also heard that any "branded" or "High Value" donations are often put away for collection so they can be sent off to other shops to be sold at a higher price. I personally find this disgusting as I feel that anything you donate should at least be given a chance to be sold in a LOCAL STORE before being sent off elsewhere. And on the topic of refusing donations, I've also heard that the "Manager"; if you can call them that, doesn't do their job properly and formerly managed the Age UK shop, which has now shut down. Anyone seeing this review, please... hold your donations until the British Red Cross reopens as; at least then, your donations will have a higher chance to be accepted by a charity shop who legitimately cares about your donations, instead of this place.

I would love to say that iv been in our local hospice in South Elmsall ever week now wow the price are unbelievable and the manager that runs the store never has a sale rail in my opinion I think it would make sense to have sales than keep the price up

Prices too high for a charity shop the boss is very rude seen a man asking what’s the best price for a item she went what does it say on price he said the price she says that’s the price Natsy person and I’ve herd she keeps designer stuff hidden and she throws stuff away what people donate rather than sell them I used to give lots to this shop no more I’ll take mine elsewhere she is very rude seen someone take stuff in and they did it see signs and she was very nasty to them horrid woman I will tell people not to donate to this shop she is very rude to staff also she talks to them like a dog wouldn’t put up with it on the good side there is two nice women in there who are very nice the manager of this shop is the one I am talking about

Saw a table in window,rang up next morning as i wanted to buy it.Was told it was not for sale .Wasn't there morning after ,called in nd was told a customer offered £15....Totally unfair as I take alot of stuff into shop nd wudve bought it for any amount...Gutted!

Tracey is absolutely goes above and beyond, helps anyway she can and my kids love going in just to see her. Even to give them ice pops on these hot summer days she’s an absolute credit to this shop!
