Closing Down Sale Underway at Market Harborough Charity Shop

A closing down sale is underway at the Cancer Research UK shop in Market Harborough with all items half-price.

The long-standing Coventry Road store will shut on Friday as part of a nationwide shake-up of the charity’s retail operations.

Julie Byard, Director of Trading at Cancer Research UK, said the decision was not a reflection on the local team: “We are deeply grateful to our staff, volunteers and customers who have supported the Market Harborough shop over the years. Their dedication and generosity have helped fund vital cancer research and made a real difference to people affected by cancer.

“Like many high street retailers, we’re facing rising costs and changing shopping habits. To continue funding life-saving research at the scale that’s needed, we need to change.

“The decision is part of a change to our retail chain – one that will help maximise the money we raise for life-saving cancer research. While the Harborough shop may be closing, our commitment to beating cancer together remains stronger than ever.”
