Erikshjälpen Second Hand and Mitt Norden Biståndscenter end their cooperation
On 30 November, Erikshjälpen Second Hand will end its collaboration with the local association Mitt Norden Biståndscenter, which runs the second-hand shops in Västernorrland County and Östersund.
The stores will continue to operate in the same way as before but under a different name.
It is with sadness in our hearts that we leave the organization after many years of good cooperation.

- "It is with sadness in our hearts that we leave the organization after many years of good cooperation," says Anette Alm Gustafsson, Executive Director of Erikshjälpen Second Hand.
Mitt Norden Biståndscenter is an association consisting of free church congregations in the region. The eleven Second Hand shops in cooperation with Erikshjälpen are located in Hudiksvall, Sundsvall, Timrå, Härnösand, Kramfors, Sollefteå, Fränsta, Ånge and Östersund.
When Erikshjälpen Second Hand now chooses to leave the collaboration, it is due to different opinions and thoughts on how the business should develop in the long term and how it can best generate help and support for those who are in difficulty, both in Sweden and in the world. For a long time, both parties have been working to find a solution, but without success.
- Warm thanks to Mitt Norden Biståndscenter, all employees, donors and customers for a good cooperation and commitment during the 30 years that Erikshjälpen Second Hand has been in the area and which has enabled interventions for children's rights around the world, says Anette Alm Gustafsson.
