Charity Shop To Open At Ryde's Edinburgh Woollen Mill

Local Data Company (C).

Another charity shop looks set to come to Ryde.

It's claimed the former Edinburgh Woollen Mill (EWM) store, in the High Street, has been bought.

Ryde councillor Cllr Karen Lucioni says charity Friends of the Animals is taking over the building.

It's been stood empty since the collapse of EWM last year, as Isle of Wight Radio previously reported.

Work is expected to be carried out on the building before the charity opens.

Friends of the Animals already has a base in Newport and has recently opened a store in Sandown.
