Willen Hospice welcomed its first customers to Off The Record at Midsummer Place over the weekend.
The shop, which first opened at The Point just under a year ago, is a unique concept store, offering great-priced, pre-loved vinyl, instruments, accessories, memorabilia, and more. Due to its success, it has relocated to a bigger premise at Midsummer Place with a brand-new look and feel.
The money raised from sales will go towards funding specialist palliative care for local families. The charity hopes to attract lots of new music lovers being in such a prominent position and ultimately raise more vital funds for the Hospice.
This new location also means there is additional space to display all things music, giving even more choice to customers and making it a must-visit destination for music fans.
Mark Rawlins, Associate Director of Commercial said "We are always looking to do something different in charity retail and this shop follows the recent opening of ‘The Hangout’, which is our new gaming shop and arcade located in the Xscape.
“Off The Record is run by amazing volunteers who are passionate about music, have fantastic knowledge and love helping customers find what they’re looking for.
"This is an opportunity for us to bring something special to Milton Keynes, which has a rich music history, while also helping patients and families who are receiving support from Willen Hospice.”
The charity is encouraging local people to donate any of their pre-loved music items and instruments to be sold at Off The Record. These can be dropped into any of the Willen Hospice shops around Milton Keynes.
The opening hours will be Monday-Saturday 10am - 6pm, and Sundays are 10am - 5pm. Fans of the shop can stay up to date by following Off The Record MK on Facebook and Instagram.
