Age UK to Open Largest Cumbrian Store

Leading North West commercial property consultants Robert Pinkus & Co. LLP can report that Canal Head Business and Retail Park, Ulverston is now fully let as Age UK South Lakeland secures its biggest Cumbrian outlet to date.

The 4,095 sq ft property has been secured for Age UK South Lakeland on a new 10 year lease with Robert Pinkus & Co. LLP acting on behalf of the landlord E H Booth & Co. Ltd. Age UK will trade directly opposite Booths foodstore and alongside WCF Pet Supplies, Cumbria Crystal and Mountain Warehouse.

Age UK will open to the public on Thursday 2nd June at 10am and will trade alongside its existing Ulverston town centre store in New Market Street and a further 9 outlets throughout Cumbria including a Grange Superstore, Milnthorpe Outlet and Kendal Furniture Warehouse.

The new store will provide the charity with ample space to run a donation centre and retail outlet that can accommodate larger items such as furniture and household goods, as well as accepting good quality donations of kitchenware, electricals, books, bric-a-brac and clothing. Age UK offers a free furniture collection service within the South Lakeland area and can also deliver items for a small charge.

John O’Brien, Head of Income at Age UK South Lakeland said, “The new showroom at Canal Head will be our biggest Cumbrian outlet to date and we’ll be able to make fantastic use of the showroom space and great on-site customer parking. We will take any saleable donations big or small. The new Canal Head showroom will provide a substantial boost to our fundraising efforts which will be distributed back into the local community to help maintain and improve community events and services.”
