Puttinu Cares Charity Shop

About

One long, well-stocked room in Qawra, full of donated clothes, baby gear, toys, books, glassware, china and things for the house. The stock changes with what people bring in, so two visits are rarely the same. Prices are marked on the items and the rails are kept in good order. All proceeds go to the Puttinu Cares Foundation, the Maltese charity that supports children and adults with cancer, and their families.

We called in on a Saturday morning and found a boxed Kenwood, a set of fleur-de-lis glasses and a rolled rug within ten steps of each other.
