Our shop

Pop-up charity boutique

We are thrilled to be opening our summer pop-up shop at:

179 Camden High Street 
London
NW1 7JY 

Due to the popularity of our Leather Lane Boutique and hub, we decided that it's only fair to open an extra space for you to shop, volunteer and socialise over the summer.

Our new Camden High Street pop-up will be officially opening on Saturday 15 May with the opening hours of Tuesday to Saturday, 10am to 5pm.

We need you to donate your quality, pre-loved items to the store.

Your donations will help us to continue our vital work at Age UK Camden, providing life-enhancing services for older people in Camden. There are lots of things you can donate. Perhaps you have some vinyl records that don't get played anymore? Some leisurewear or shoes in good condition? Or even some quality art or coffee table books you're happy to part with. Whatever you're willing to donate, we'd love you to drop your items off at our store from Saturday 15 May.
