Women’s Aid Lauches Vibrant New ‘Pop-Up’ Shop In Antrim

Women’s Aid ABCLN has launched a vibrant new 'pop-up' shop in Antrim. 

Located in Grace House, Fountain Street the shop will offer a fantastic array of quality 'new and nearly new' women's clothing & accessories, books and treasures - providing shoppers with the chance to find unique items while supporting this vital local cause.

“We are thrilled to be opening this new shop in the heart of Antrim,” said Women’s Aid ABCLN CEO, Gillian Creevy.  “It is a wonderful opportunity for the community to support our work with women and children, shop sustainably and purchase some beautiful brands."

Already causing a stir with its eye-catching window displays and arrival of brand-new fixtures and fittings, Gillian said "the enthusiasm we have received has been incredible, and we look forward to welcoming everyone through our doors.”

“Every purchase made will contribute directly to sustaining Women’s Aid’s specialist services and support for women and children experiencing domestic abuse here in Antrim.”

Launching initially as a ‘pop up’ with the view to becoming permanent in the coming weeks, the shop will not only offer a unique retail experience, it will provide a safe place for all women to access information and support.

Speaking at the launch, Women's Aid Ambassador and former Councillor Noreen McClelland said "I am delighted to be part of this exciting new shopping experience for women in Antrim.”

"Having been involved with the organisation for many years, I know at first hand the incredible work Women’s Aid does in our local community and am looking forward to coming on board as a new retail volunteer.”

Volunteers will be essential to the shop’s sustainability and success,

Noreen says “If you would like to help out in the shop and volunteer for a few hours each week we would love to hear from you.”

“Volunteering is a deeply rewarding way to give back and help Women’s Aid provide life-changing safety and support for women and children.”
