News from the 2gether shop team

We are so thankful to all our customers for their generous donations and purchases over the last seven years. Without the ongoing support of our customers and volunteers this project would not have been possible.

October: Brimming with brides

bridal window This month we were delighted to hold our third bridal day. Heading Up The Aisle , a Bridal Boutique in Chislehurst were extremely generous and donated 13 bridal gowns and bridemaid dresses for the occasion. The whole shop looked set for a wedding with gorgeous gowns, shoes, bags, hats and glassware to name but a few. 16 brides came and 5 bought their wedding dresses. We raised £2,100 for the charity.

If you would like to purchase a new wedding dress and have a limited budget, please call or email and we will be delighted to help.

September: Late night shopping - in the heat

Autumn Late Night

This event took place during the very popular Chislehurst Festival. Even though the weather was unusually hot the crowds turned up and literally bought loads. Outside the West End Jazz band entertained us and at one point a passer by happen to have HIS ukelele and joined in. A great community atmosphere that raised £1,750 for our charity.

June: Fair weather at the Fair

This was our third year pitching a pop-up gazebo ready for the Chislehurst Summer Fair. After days of rain we were relieved to only have a short down pour that brought the customers inside to shop. A steady flow of visitors through the day meant we were excited to raise another £677 for our charity. All the clothes still gracing the rails after the fair soon got snapped up at 2gether. Do come and visit our stall next June on the Common.

May: Success at Summer event

This May we held our 4th Summer late night shopping event. Through the year we save our most special clothes and accessories for each season and literally transform the shop with all the fresh stock. It seems our customers look forward to these evenings and on May 12th there was again a queue at 6pm followed by an extremely crowded shop full of customers. In just over an hour we had raised £1,200 for the charity. Our next late night shopping event will be on Thursday September 29th between 6:00pm - 8:00pm.
