The charity is challenging shoppers to find one of a kind gifts in their shops and eBay store to help consumers reduce waste and save money this Christmas.

By giving donated items a new lease of life, shoppers will also help the BHF in its recovery from the coronavirus crisis.

If you’d rather stay at home, you can now also find an array of preloved gifts for fashion lovers on the BHF’s recently launched Depop page.

If you’re on the hunt for something extra special to put a smile on a loved one’s face, you can also try the BHF’s eBay shop which offers antique watches, vintage jewellery and signed memorabilia.

Allison Swaine-Hughes, Retail Director at the British Heart Foundation, said: “If you’re looking to celebrate Christmas a bit differently this year, our Charity Shop Challenge will help you think outside the box when it comes to your festive shopping.
