This place was a disappointment to me because it’s mostly furniture for sale. Don’t get me wrong, sometimes I find the neatest pieces of furniture in charity shops for great prices – but I much prefer a good browse amongst books and bric-à-brac. There are a small amount of toys, puzzles, games, etc but not a whole lot.

Remar is a large charity shop on Aigburth Road, close to Lark Lane. It specialises in furniture and has a large range of items. They sell bedroom furniture, dining tables, chairs, sofa’s, beds, shelving, occasional tables and garden furniture. They have a massive range of styles from your basic MFI type furniture to the more expensive and classy solid wood items. The staff are very friendly and helpful. They greet you as you walk in and are happy to help and direct you to the sort of item you want. They don’t pressure you but give good advice and information about the furniture they sell. If you do not need help they are happy to leave you to browse at your leisure. There is a small area of the shop which is like your usual charity shop with books, records, ornaments, glassware toys and shoes. It’s a bit untidy and looks like a jumble sale in this area, but it’s worth a rummage.

Remar UK is a charity that I know little about and have never really heard of before so when I stumbled across one of their stores I thought it might be a good idea to give them a bit of a mention and hopefully draw some attention. Their store in Aigburth is fairly standard as far as charity shops go but can throw up some real surprises with some furniture on sale being brand new and of a high quality. The staff here work hard for the cause and their enthusiasm and friendliness is infectious and I could not have been more impressed with their attitude. On the whole the point here is not about how good the business is although it is a well run one, the point is that these people are working for a good cause and the people of Liverpool should support it.
