Support us Shop Our charity shops Our Charity Shops We have charity shops in Merthyr Tydfil, Pontyclun, and Pontypridd, raising funds for the dogs in our care. Our shop sells everything from dog sundries, clothing, shoes, handbags and accessories, to digital and printed media, household items, small pieces of furniture, electrical items and children's toys. Don't forget to check out our popular Handmade by Hope range. Your dog is of course more than welcome to shop with you!

To help us save costs, we need to make sure that the donations we receive are saleable. When considering donating to us, ask the question "would I buy these items?" If so, we’d love to take them. If you think no, I would not buy those items, we would be really grateful if you could recycle or dispose of them at home. Unfortunately, we are unable to accept donations of duvets (used), large furniture items and media cassettes (audio or VHS). This is due to constraints of space and the cost of disposal for these items. Please keep in mind that Taff Street in Pontypridd is pedestrianised between 11am and 3pm Monday to Saturday. Therefore, if you need to drop off donations from your vehicle outside of our shop, you should avoid these times. If you’re unable to visit one of our shops, you can also drop off items at our rescue centre although space is more limited here. We also have volunteers in some areas who may be able to collect. Please contact us to check if there is someone in your area. eBay Donations We understand that it’s often nerve-racking to donate your precious items to a charity in case they don’t recognise their value and don’t ensure an appropriate price. We have always endeavoured to do this at Hope Rescue, and our eBay shop has helped us market these items on a much wider scale to ensure we get the best possible return for our dogs from your donations. Our eBay donations are processed at our Pontypridd charity shop, and can be dropped off at that location, or to our rescue centre shop in Llanharan.
