Kate Bush has opened a pop-up store at Coal Drops Yard this week to raise funds for homeless people. The shop is selling remastered versions of her music on vinyl and CD and her lyric book How To Be Invisible. All profits made at the store will go to the charity Crisis.

Kate said “I can’t imagine how it must feel to be homeless. Our attention is drawn to this tragic issue at Christmas when most of us can share the celebrations with those we love but, of course, homelessness is there all year round – all the time. It must be so frightening. Without charities like Crisis, who would people turn to? Who would help? Where would the hope of a future come from? I hope this pop up shop will raise some money for Crisis and raise more awareness of this life-saving charity”.

The store is now open on Lower Stable Street at Coal Drops Yard until 9 December – go check it out!
