Wow, what a busy Christmas month we had! We are delighted to announce that we raised £5000 for Camp Mowhawk last term. Thank you so much to all of our lovely customers who helped us raise this!
This term we are raising for 'WaysIntoWork' - a charity that supports young people to seek their first employment. This charity is close to our hearts since they do great work and can be an incredible support for pour students as they transition from our schools into the workplace.
Pop in to see us shortly, we have a number of items reduced to clear in our January sale. Look out for our new red SALE tags that we are using to really highlight these offers to customers
Look forward to seeing you soon!

Today we have been juggling serving many customers with getting the shop ready for our special Saturday opening tomorrow for the 'Christmas at the waterside quarter' special event in Maidenhead High Street. We have been getting all the Christmas stock out, making sure it's priced and ready to sell. We have also been preparing bubble wrap and paper and bags to make sure our customers can take their new products home without breaking them. My favourite item that we have for sale right now is a small Santa decoration with a wire Christmas tree. It's £25 and I love it!
Merry Christmas everybody!
From Josh 🙂

This week we have finished building our magical Christmas displays. We have Christmas decorations for sale from 50p, we have lot's of small gifts, and my favourite item is the set of white Christmas plates which are £20 for 6. We have wrapped up fake presents in different wrapping paper to raise the cheer for customers and to make nice displays. The shop is looking very festive! Jason is currently watering the plants, they are real snake plants and they are £10 each. Please come and buy them, and try your best to keep it alive! I am really happy working in the shop, it's always so warm and welcoming here. Thank you for reading my blog.
Signing off, Stephen 🙂
