From the outside this second-hand furniture shop doesn't look like much--but nosey your way though…read morethe raggedy entrance, past the offices, and you will find yourself in an enormous vault of housewares. The quality and range of furniture here is excellent, and the prices make each item a fantastic value. Not only that, but it's run largely by volunteers with profits going to help the homeless. Although it looks modest and homely, (especially with Ibrox looming over it across the street), this really is a treasure trove of used goods that will spruce up your home *and* help a worthy charity! Other details: Cash only / Delivery for £15 / Close to Ibrox, Govan and on the 121, 89 and 90 bus routes

I wouldn't have it any other way, but it can be exhausting. Then I came to the Biritsh Heart Foundation in the Clydebank Shopping Centre, and found the best teapot in the world! It cost a tenner, but if I took that bad boy to the Antiques Roadshow I'm sure I'd come back a millionaire. It looks amazing - it's even got Henry VIII on it! But I gave it to my mum because I knew she'd love it - all together now, AWWW. But aside from my ramblings about how ace this British Heart is, the shop itself is exceptionally well oerganised, packed full of cheeky bargains and usually very busy indeed. They normally have some gorgeous clothes and occasionally you can pick up some designer knock off's in here for under a fiver. The volunteer was so friendly and good at his job. And it shows because this outlet of the British Heart Foundation does its charity proud!

Most of the clothing in here would suit older generations, with high quality V neck knits and a copious amount of lilac skirts and shirts! All were well priced and kept in really good condition - an easy outfit option for fancy parties! There was also an amiable selection of clothes for gents, including a large supply of jackets. The volunteers were hard at work keeping this place clean and orderly when I entered, and were notably in high spirits which is always nice on a rainy day! They were hard at work on an Easter display - gotta love a charity shop with seasonal themes. They had broken out the Easter bunnies from the back for this special occasion, and I must admit I did giggle when I heard one of the ladies comment on how one of the toys was "nice, but glaikit lookin'". What a greatly underappreciated Scots word, and to great comic effect - for those of you not from these parts it means you look a bit morose and downtrodden. Seeing people happy in their job is a rarity these days and it was pleasant to see these ladies getting into the Spring spirit of things.
