Jemma Humphreys, the charity’s spokesman, said: “We want to help ensure more people under the age of 25 in Wigan and across the UK survive cancer with a good quality of life. So we hope as many people as possible will donate any quality clothes or goods to their local TK Maxx store. Not only could they help to save lives, they’ll also be reducing their environmental impact by giving their pre-loved items another lease of life.”

People can donate at any TK Maxx store all year round, including the stores at Robin Retail Park in Wigan and Parsonage Retail Park in Leigh.
