Charity shops in Paphos are -without doubt – the best in Cyprus!
Though they are spread out across the region, they offer a treasure trove of pre-loved items, from clothing and books to furniture and household goods, all while supporting various charitable causes.
Famagusta Gazette has been out in the town to experience some of the best ones you should definitely check out:
1. St Michael’s Hospice Charity – Kato Paphos Shop
Located on Apostolou Pavlou Avenue, this shop supports St Michael’s Hospice, which provides palliative care to those in need. The shop offers a wide range of items, including clothing, books, and bric-a-brac. It’s a great place to find unique items while supporting a worthy cause. We saw a nearly new HD TV for 60 euros. Not bad eh?
