The Little Stars Charity Shop – Where Every Purchase Gives Back

Tucked into the heart of Shrewsbury is a little shop that makes a big difference. The Little Stars Charity Shop is more than just a place to pick up affordable baby and children’s items – it is a vital part of our mission to support children and families.

Shopping at Little Stars is not only a sustainable way to shop, every purchase helps fund our vital programmes, helping families at the time they need it most.

What we stock:

All of the items in our shop are excess donations, or donations we’re unable to pass on to the families we support through our main charity work. Because of this, our stock is always changing, but you’ll typically find:

Availability depends on what’s been donated, so we can’t guarantee specific items or sizes will be in stock at any given time. Pop in and see what’s arrived, or follow us on Facebook and Instagram for updates on new donations.

Whilst we rely on donations, our main priority is the families we support through the charity, which is why all donations go to our HQ first, where they’re sorted and quality checked by our team of volunteers. Suitable items are then passed on to the shop.

Supporting Families with Every Sale

The shop plays a crucial role in helping us reach more people.

Our shop provides a bridge to help to families on low incomes seeking good quality children’s clothing and maternity wear at affordable prices.

Where to find us

We’re located on the ground floor of The Darwin Shopping Centre in The Collective.

We are immensely grateful for the support of the Darwin Centre team, whose partnership has made this venture possible. The Little Stars shop stands as a testament to collaboration and is a tremendous asset to the community!

I absolutely love little stars! Mel is amazing, such a kind lady and a huge asset to you shop!

Great store, with a good range of items. Babies grow so fast so from a sustainability point of view it’s great to donate and reuse, to give clothes a second life. Especially as they are worn a limited amount of times.

Thank you so much. You have no idea how much help you are giving. Going to little star shop is having excellent quality in a very low prices. Highly recommended!

I love little stars! From day one coming in Mel Made us feel welcome. I had 2 children under 2 when i first started going in, we have always been welcome in with open arms.
