THE HONEYCOMB

Many of you will be familiar with The Honeycomb Christian Charity Shop on Church Street, and that it has been open for many years: 27 years to be exact!
We are often asked if we are attached to a church, or churches, and where does the profit we make go to?
The answer is that behind The Honeycomb there is a completely independent Christian charity called The Saved to Serve Trust. This comprises of 6 Trustees (all who attend various churches)  who meet approximately every 6 weeks to discuss shop matters and prayerfully decide how any available profits should be distributed. Our remit is to relieve poverty and meet need. This can take many forms and can be from as far afield as Peru, India  and Romania where we have regular links, to national organisations and then to local concerns in Nottingham and Ruddington. Some of our giving is to well known charities, sometimes in response to a catastrophe e.g. Tearfund, but sometimes it is to smaller organisations and individuals too.
We also like to support practically where we can by passing on unsold clothes to others e.g. The Friary Drop-In Centre, or to a home for teenage mums!
Please come in the shop and see the different organisations we have helped and the many needs we have been able to meet this year.
