Furniture Works, based at 39 St Thomas Street, Scarborough, first opened its doors in 2020 and now features a new look!
The refurbished shop, which is part of the Futureworks NY family, includes extended retail space, additional products for sale and Coffee Works, a donations-only hot drinks area for customers.
Furniture Works sells pre-owned furniture which has been skilfully restored and upcycled by our clients and mentors.
We would like to thank everyone involved for their hard work in getting the shop ready for opening on 11th March 2024.
We founded the shop 4 years ago as we needed a space to show off the creations made by our clients.
Our remit includes teaching and sharing practical skills with our learners.
One of the key areas is the restoration of donated furniture.
Our clients and mentors do an amazing job transforming tired pieces of furniture into something that can find its forever home. So, we not only put our learners’ skills to good use, we also prevent items going to landfill, and provide essential quality furniture at a price people can afford.
Coffee Works is now up and running, helping to raise funds with a minimum donation of £2.50.
Proceeds from sales go towards Futureworks NY, established in 2012.
We are based in Scarborough and we help local learners from school age upwards, enabling them to acquire life skills, confidence, practical skills and some qualifications in an environment that suits their individual requirements.
