Mary Queen of Charity Shops

Episode 3

Mary enters the final stretch of her campaign with just four weeks to prove her ideas can transform charity shops. At London Fashion Week, she and her volunteers convince celebrities and fashion editors to showcase charity shop finds, grabbing media attention. She launches “D-Day,” a donation drive involving multiple charities, and rebrands her Orpington shop as the Living and Giving Shop, offering local designers a 50/50 profit split. With tensions rising among her volunteers, Mary pushes to unite the team. After five months, she meets with Save the Children to reveal if her reforms hit the £2,000-a-week target and if her vision will be adopted chain-wide.
