Car Boot Sale Ty Pors Moro EHPAD

The Ty Pors Moro EHPAD Car Boot Sale, a day of solidarity in Pont-l'Abbé

Ty Pors Moro is the EHPAD (Accommodation Establishment for Dependent Elderly People) in Pont-l'Abbé, located at 32 rue de Lambour. Every year in June, this establishment takes on a festive atmosphere by organizing its annual car boot sale in the residence's garden. This event, which has become an anticipated meeting point for the people of Pont-l'Abbé and the inhabitants of the Pays Bigouden, brings together about a hundred exhibitors each year.

The initiative is part of the establishment's commitment to opening its doors to the town, creating social connections between residents and the local population, and funding animation or equipment projects for the well-being of those housed there. The car boot sale is thus an opportunity for residents' families, staff, and volunteers to mobilize around a common cause in a warm atmosphere.

A hundred exhibitors in a green setting

The garden of Ty Pors Moro is perfectly suited for hosting a car boot sale: a green, quiet, and accessible space, it offers a pleasant outdoor setting to browse among the stalls. With around one hundred exhibitors, the event offers a wide variety of items: adult and children's clothing, toys, books, crockery, small furniture, decorative objects, garden tools, and all sorts of finds from cupboards.

The exhibitors are mainly individuals from the Pays Bigouden wishing to give a second life to their items while contributing to a good cause. Admission is €1 for visitors, a modest price that helps with the organization of the event. Sellers are welcomed from 7 am to set up, and visitors can browse the aisles from 9 am to 6 pm.

Festivities and refreshments on site

The atmosphere of the Ty Pors Moro car boot sale is resolutely friendly. Refreshments are offered on site by volunteers, allowing visitors to take a gourmet break during their visit. The presence of the EHPAD residents, who sometimes observe the activity from the common areas or participate in their own way, gives this event a particularly touching human dimension. For children accompanying their parents, it is also a great opportunity to discover a living facility that is often little known.
