Forget Me Knot Shop
At Forget Me Knot we sell new, second hand and donated items. We are based in Bracknell and run by The Ark Trust.
We are not your usual charity shop! Full of all things vintage, retro, quirky, upcycled, handmade, vinyl, clothing, glassware gifts and lots more to purchase at great prices.
It is a place to sit and have a tea or coffee with a friend (*subject to COVID restrictions) or chat to our staff and volunteers, play on the retro-games machine and find out information about the support, activities and organisations available to you locally.
Everyones safety is our top priority. Anyone visiting the shop is enchouraged to continue wearing a face mask when inside (unless exempt). Hand sanitiser is available for all and we are continuing our enhanced cleaning.
*We are not encouraging people to stay for extended times due to social distancing and we are not serving tea and coffee regularly but we will never turn away someone in need. The childrens play area toys are also in storage.
Drop in, bring your face mask and grab yourself a bargain!

Donations
We always need your unwanted items to help fund our local charitable activities.
You can donate by dropping in when we are open or if the item is bulky we may be able to collect.
Don’t forget to consider Gift Aid too, to boost the value of your donation by a further 25%. If your eligible we can sign you up when you donate.
We take a variety of items but we may seem a little picky. Please remember, we are not your usual charity shop. We welcome donations that are vintage, hand made, retro and quirky. Not sure what we mean? check out the photos below.
