FARA is a charity shop that sells a range of donated clothes, books, jewellery and bric-a-brac to raise money for Romanian orphans. FARA Lavender Hill opened in September 2006 and is situated between the Post Office and the Police Station, a short walk from the ASDA car park. Often targeted by stylists, fashion students as well as the fashion conscious locals, it offers an eclectic mix of clothing and accessories. High street names to designer brands are on offer at affordable prices and the shop stocks a particularly good range of menswear. A good rummage amongst the books and bric-a-brac will reveal oddments and collectables, making it a destination shop for hobbyists and dealers alike.
