Bag a bargain and help end homelessness with Open Door’s Fill A Bag event

Who doesn’t love a bargain?

If you’re a fan of treasure hunts and supporting a good cause, mark your calendars for Monday 10 March because Open Door, the charity shops of The Whitechapel Centre, are hosting their next Fill A Bag event.

For just £12, you can snag a bag bursting with clothes—everything from designer gems to vintage finds, almost-new pieces, or items needing a little TLC.

It’s the perfect opportunity to revamp your wardrobe with unique, affordable fashion while contributing to The Whitechapel Centre’s vital mission to end homelessness in Liverpool.

You’ll have two hours to explore an incredible range of donated clothes, fill your bag to the brim, and leave with your treasures. The event is as much about the thrill of the hunt as it is about supporting a fantastic cause.

“Fill A Bag is always a hit! People love finding incredible pieces, whether it’s high-end brands, quirky vintage, or wardrobe staples. It’s a fun way to shop and make a difference at the same time.”

The event will take place at Leaf, Bold Street, on Monday 10th March, with two sessions available: 3.00pm – 5.00pm, and 6.00pm – 8.00pm.

Or, for the keen bargain hunter, why not attend both?
