Preloved

You’ll find Preloved, new-to-you treasures, from the essential and everyday to the wildly quirky and original one-of-a-kind pieces, that are just calling out to be taken home and Reloved by you.

Monday – Thursday 10am – 4:30pm

Friday & Saturday 10am – 5pm

Find us in Smith Street

Designer pieces sit happily on the rails alongside super stylish everyday clothing, showing you that the mix of styles and prices is what make outfits truly individual, reflecting your style and personality. Here we offer:

  • women’s clothing of all kinds, including fabulous party dresses and pieces for special events
  • beautiful jewellery
  • shoes
  • bags and accessories
  • unique rentable costumes and accessories
  • true vintage clothing
  • men’s clothing and accessories

Preloved also hosts The Repair Café for the Clean Earth Trust.

Every Wednesday, their team pop-up to provide TLC for all your textiles, clothing and soft toys, adding to our own sustainable ethos of encouraging quality over quantity and helping you make your loved items last as long as possible.

A fantastic range of haberdashery, fabrics, sewing and knitting patterns also gives you every opportunity to explore the creative in you. Trash your denim perhaps? Patch and embroider to create something unique, adapt a classic or make something from scratch and show us the results….we love to share your creativity! While you’re in Preloved, don’t forget to search through the vintage button collection of dreams!

Shop Window Displays

We work closely with our online Directory Partners and they are able to use our shop windows to share more of what they do. We’ve enjoyed some great visual collaborations with other charities and love to provide the opportunity to share their message in the centre of Town.
If your organisation or group’s activities are in line with our mission of enabling people to access the support that matters to them for a happier, healthier life, please get in touch for more information about booking a date for your display.

Connect Community Space

Finally, Preloved, Smith St and Reloved Living, Market Square both welcome you and yours into the Connect Community Spaces. If you need to take a moment to rest, especially if you have small children or frail friends or family with you, you’ll find a warm welcome, a comfortable seat and a glass of water, helping you recharge the emotional and physical batteries. Children can play with the toys whilst adults can have a relaxed look around the shops, before heading back out to support the local independent retailers in Town.
