Cancer Research UK Charity Shop (Abbeygate Street)

Cancer Research UK has two charity shops in Bury St Edmunds town centre, with one on Cornhill and another on Abbeygate Street. Having two locations makes them particularly easy to include in a town-centre charity-shop trail – and if you don't find anything at one, you can always try the other.

Both shops offer men's and ladies' clothing, providing plenty of opportunity to hunt through the rails for pre-loved fashion. For anyone who enjoys vintage style, charity shops can be a fantastic source of inspiration. You might find an older piece that works perfectly with your existing wardrobe, or something that gives a modern outfit a completely different look.

There is also home décor and a selection of books, so there are plenty of reasons to browse even if you're not specifically looking for clothes. Home décor can be particularly interesting for anyone who likes an eclectic or vintage-inspired interior, while the book section offers the usual possibility of an unexpected bargain.

With two Cancer Research shops within the town centre, they are an easy pair to visit as part of a wider thrifting day. And, as with all charity shops, the selection will change regularly – which is part of what makes returning for another browse so enjoyable.
