Charity Offer From Dorset Business

A Poole storage business wants to become a charity champion and is offering space at a discount for good causes. Store & Secure in Hamworthy is a family business and wants to add to the number of charities using its facility.

It is run by the ‘storage sisters’ Lucy and Sophie Maidman who were born and raised in the area. Lucy said:

“We know that many small, independent charities are looking for low-cost storage solutions. We have a number of units of different sizes available which we will rent to them for a considerable discount. Our facility is huge and extremely secure which gives confidence to those using it."

“Also available is a small office which we have available at the moment – and we can also offer that to a charity for a discount. Our motivation is to give back to the community. Over the years we have done many things for charity and want to do more."

“So many small charities do incredible work in our communities and if we can save them a few pounds by offering discounted storage then everyone benefits.”

Store & Secure is so successful that it has recently acquired permission to extend its bright yellow Hamworthy facility. Lucy added:

“Having opened our business here just a few years ago we are so pleased with how its gone and are now extending it. We have clients of all kinds; from house movers to businesses storing stock and from charities to individuals whose hobby has grown out of their homes and they need extra space.”
