Thrift shops have enjoyed a renaissance in recent years. This heart-warming format shows that they’re full of hidden treasures – not just the things they sell, but the people who visit and work there. The series focuses particularly on upcycling, finding creative ways to use old things. Charity shops can also provide people with new and purposeful lives, helping them to discover new talents and rediscover old ones. The Success of the Thrift Shop shows that there are almost no limits to human resilience, humour, acceptance and trust.
