Friendly Local Service 
My late grandmother used this chemist for all her medical and toiletry needs and having used the place myself I can see why. The staff are very friendly and really helpful. What is great about the service is that they are incredibly friendly whilst still being very professional.
They stock high end goods including many lesser known (in the UK) French skin care products as well as an extensive make up and perfume counter. They sell almost everything - but they stock it in a very minimal environment as not to bombard you.
They have lots of staff to hand for a small shop and they are very knowledgeable about the products that they sell.
A great local chemist that offers far better service than most larger competitors.

Review of Fara Charity Shop

This is the Cream of the Crop! 
If I were the richest person in the world I would still seek out an original bargain. This is the cream of the crop of all charity shops. I am reluctant to review this place as I fear that others will cotton on - and I will loose all the great designer lovelies that fill the rails.
This shop is rammed with designer clothes at cracking prices, Prada coats for £30, Cacharel dresses for£20 and Reiss skirts for £6. This is unlike most luxury charity shops in that, the designer items that they have are not really dated and reminiscent of the early 1990's (the power dressing era that is best forgotten)
I love this place and always walk out with bags of bargains, from Office shoes to MaxMara knitwear. Prices are reasonable and the staff are friendly.
