CHARITY SHOPS THRIVE DUE TO RECESSION

Did someone say recession? What recession? One area that is flourishing due to the terrible state of the economy is charity stores.

Canterbury's Shelter has benefitted from the current economic climate
It seems that the recession has led the people of Canterbury to search for cheaper places to spend their money, with most turning to charity shops.

In fact, the boom in business has lead to charity shops breaking records across the UK. One of these is the British Heart Foundation (BHF) which netted over £26 million in their stores across the country last year, that is an 18% rise in profits from the year before.

One charity shop in Canterbury that has benefitted from the state of the economy is Shelter. Stacy Gore runs the store and has certainly noticed a stark difference, especially during the Christmas period...

I was wondering if you ever thought of changing the structure of your blog?
Its very well written; I love what youve got to say.
But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better.
Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one or two pictures.
Maybe you could space it out better?
