A lot of people have come to us asking if we’re shutting down – the answer is definitely no!

A ‘For Sale’ sign has appeared outside our shop Renaissance in Tower Street, Ludlow, and it looks like Halls are selling us off, but that’s not the case at all.

Our landlord Maurice Bellwood has decided to sell the building but we are tenants here and the charity shop is unaffected.

Our tenancy won’t be affected by the sale of the building, in fact it’s one of the conditions for whoever buys it.

We asked Mr Bellwood to let you know himself and here’s what he said:

“I am selling the shop only, and the Furniture Scheme’s tenancy is secure.”

So please be assured, the Renaissance store is a key part of The Furniture Scheme’s work and helps raise vital funds to support local people in crisis or in need.

It’s a great place to sell restored furniture and we are very grateful for all our loyal customers who support us.

We are not shutting and will continue to provide all the help we currently do to as many people as we can in Ludlow and the surrounding areas.

In fact, if you’re interested in what we do – why not volunteer? Just pop in and find out more or contact us, call 01584 874922 or email info@furniturescheme.co.uk.

Or if you’re interested in buying the building and becoming our landlord contact Rebecca Welch at Halls Commercial on rebeccaw@hallsgb.com or call 01743 450715.
