VIP Charity Shopping Experience – Private Time Slot at The Retrograde

Step into a truly exclusive retail experience at Thatcham’s iconic Retro Vintage Charity Shop, The Retrograde, located on Chapel Street, Thatcham, RG18 4QL.

This VIP Shopping Experience grants the nominated Gift Holder and their chosen guests (between 1–3 additional guests) private access to the shop during a dedicated time slot. The doors will be closed to the public, creating an intimate, relaxed and entirely personalised environment to browse, discover and enjoy.

As part of the experience, the Gift Holder will receive:

• £50 in-store credit to spend on any items across the shop.

• A complimentary glass of bubbly for each guest.

• The soundtrack of their choice — select any music genre, decade or specific artist, and the entire shop will transform to match your vibe.

Whether you opt for Motown classics, 80s synth-pop, 90s Britpop, soulful jazz or a favourite artist, your music will set the tone for a shopping experience that feels completely your own.

Expect warm hospitality, vintage treasures, nostalgic finds and the joy of shopping at your own pace — all while supporting a meaningful local good cause.

Perfect as a Mother’s Day gift, birthday surprise or memorable treat, this is more than shopping — it’s a private celebration of style, music and atmosphere in one of Thatcham’s most distinctive destinations.
