The Kirkwood has launched a new online store, making it easier than ever to help The Kirkwood Support Life.

The Kirkwood hopes its new online shop will generate vital funds to support its work helping people with life-limiting illness in Kirklees.

The online shop will make it easier than ever for shoppers to support the hospice thanks to new technology installed on its website which means orders are processed quicker than ever.  

The shop – shop.thekirkwood.org.uk – will initially sell its ever popular Christmas cards, with new product lines to follow.

The Kirkwood already sells donated second-hand goods on eBay and in 22 shops across Kirklees.

Donna Weston, head of retail with The Kirkwood, said: “The Kirkwood are always thinking of new ways to engage with our supporters and to come up with fresh new ideas to help us raise vital funds.

“Our physical shops have always been really well supported by the Kirklees community and our online shop is just another opportunity for people to support us from the comfort of their own homes.”

With online sales going from strength to strength The Kirkwood hopes to tap into the growing trend and raise more funds to help its work.

Gary Stancliffe, who works with The Kirkwood, said: “Our new online shop will help raise more funds towards The Kirkwood’s vital work helping the most vulnerable people in Kirklees.

“We’ve seen great success on eBay, which has really helped throughout the pandemic, and our online store will make it even easier for people to support us.”

The shop can be found at shop.thekirkwood.org.uk
