Well done to everyone who took part in the recent NCT nearly-new sale. Ed
Three lucky shoppers got first pick at the Isle of Wight NCT’s record-breaking autumn fundraiser, the Nearly New Sale, on Saturday 9 October.
They completed a five minute bargain dash after winning a raffle draw, beating off 27 other people who were first in the queue before 11am.
And the winner were …
The winners were Mark Allen from Cowes who was shopping for Bethany (aged 13 weeks). Lydia Heslop from Ashey was shopping for Charlie, 8 months. Miranda Hunns from Freshwater was shopping for Alisha, 7 months.
The Island branch of the parenting charity welcomed a record 312 bargain hunters through the doors of the Riverside Centre in Newport and raised nearly £5000.
Big thanks to …
Our thanks go to Isle of Wight Radio’s Paul Topping and Michael Coombes who kicked off the 5 minute dash and officially opened the sale. Thanks also to the Riverside Centre. Thanks to Matalan, for providing the hanging rails and to 5star Transport for collecting and returning the rails.
The Nearly New Sale of pre-loved baby, children’s and maternity clothes and equipment is the NCT’s biggest fundraiser. It takes place twice a year and the next sale will be held in April.
