This World Mental Health Day, we want to talk about the importance of looking after our mental wellbeing every day 🗣️ We believe that a supportive environment starts at home. That's why all our employees have access to a comprehensive and confidential Employee Assistance Programme. This vital resource offers support across financial, medical, and, most importantly, mental health challenges to ensure our 'village' feels cared for. But our commitment to mental health extends beyond our own doors through our ongoing partnership with Global's Make Some Noise. By supporting their work, we help fund over 100 incredible small charities across the UK, many of whom run life-changing projects focused on mental health and wellbeing. We're proud to support the incredible work these charities do to help people facing disadvantage. We’d like to encourage everyone to take a moment today to check in with yourself, a colleague, or a loved one. Your care can make a huge difference.
Furniture Village

Award-winning family-owned furniture retailer. Rated a 'World Class' employer by Best Companies in 2024.
About us
Back in 1989 two friends decided to open the first Furniture Village store in Abingdon, Oxfordshire with a simple philosophy – to offer high quality, beautifully designed furniture at a great price with exceptional service. Our customers seem to like it, and today we’re Britain’s largest independent furniture retailer, employing over 1000 staff, and offering 500 different furniture ranges online at www.furniturevillage.co.uk and from 59 stores nationwide. Our philosophy remains the same – and we’re still a family run business. Our buyers are passionate about great design and travel the world to find furniture to inspire and excite our customers. We only partner with trusted furniture brands that share our absolute commitment to quality and many have been with us from the very beginning. Everyone - from our online sales team to our delivery drivers - is committed to 'doing it right'. We've won the Furniture Industry's Retailer of the Year Award on four separate occasions, and Bed Retailer of the Year two years running. We take pride in selling beautiful furniture that can last a lifetime and in building strong and lasting relationships with the passionate, dedicated people we work with. We welcome people who share our core values - our people are our greatest asset and every one of them is part of our family.

We’re continuing to make some noise! 📣 We're incredibly excited to announce that we will be continuing our partnership with Global's Make Some Noise as the headline sponsor and winter giving partner for 2025. Last year, we played our part in helping Make Some Noise raise an incredible £3.8 million. That massive effort - supported by our £175,000 donation - means Make Some Noise can continue its vital work supporting over 100 small charities across the UK, funding projects that make a huge difference in areas like mental health, domestic abuse support, and homelessness. We can't wait to see the positive change we can make together in 2025. Here's to another year of community, impact, and making some noise!

Cheers to 36 incredible years! 🥳 Last week, we marked a special milestone — our 36th birthday - and it was fantastic to celebrate with so many people across the business. Alongside lots of cake, we were proud to celebrate this year’s Family Partnership Profit Share Scheme which saw more people than ever before share in the success of their efforts and take home a portion of the company’s profit. What began in 1989 with a single store has grown into 59 stores nationwide and over 1,000 team members. This journey wouldn’t have been possible without the passion, dedication and hard work of the incredible people who make our family business what it is. Here’s to many more years of helping our customers love the place they call home 🎉
