The Hangar
Located at 6 Lankester Parker Road, ME1 3QU, behind Rochester airport, ‘The Hangar’ is our New Shopping Experience Store, combining fashion-forward retail with a heart for recycling and upcycling. Supporters will be able to shop with purpose and style knowing that they will be making sustainable shopping choices as well as supporting an amazing local charity. The store opened to the public Saturday 5th October from 9.30am!
The space has been transformed to offer a unique shopping experience. The Hangar is more than a store—it's a community hub and in phase two (coming next year) we plan to be able to offer unique services like personal styling, alterations, creative workshops, and eco-friendly initiatives. The community to be at the heart of this space.
The fashion industry has woken up to the environmental issues that have been created and there are some great initiatives out there from mainstream retailers, however supporting a charity directly is the best way to support the environment by donating and also shopping second hand! Excitingly, we will be launching our upcycled clothing range at The Hangar named ‘The Edit.’ This will be a totally unique department made from items that would have previously just been recycled elsewhere. Offering the opportunity for items to have another lease of life and for our customers to be able to have a one of its kind unique piece is exciting.
