Supporting Our Stores
Newmarket Open Door charity superstores are full of incredible hand picked vintage and second hand clothing, electricals, furniture, art work and more. The charity stores help to raise funds for our Supported Housing project, informal training and support to disadvantaged people who may be between jobs, those recovering from an illness or substance misuse and give them a home in the world of work.
