London, 3 October 2024: Attention TV die-hards! Today, Netflix has announced As Seen on Netflix, a pop-up shop coming to London and Birmingham selling all manner of wonderful bits and bobs from fan favourite Netflix shows.
From showcase wardrobe pieces, to niche background props and unique memorabilia, As Seen on Netflix, which sees Netflix partnering with leading mental health charity Mind, will be a treasure trove for fans, providing the ultimate space for them to geek out, connect with others and take home a piece of TV and film.

Mind will also be running a free prize draw for the chance to win one of three signed posters of Zeus from KAOS (Jeff Goldblum).
All of the proceeds from As Seen on Netflix will be collected directly by Mind, and support the charity’s work across England and Wales. The money will help fund mental health services, including helplines which give free and confidential advice, and the online peer support community for adults, Side by Side. It will also enable Mind to continue to campaign for change on a range of issues like health services, legislation and employment, as well as challenging stigma, to make sure that everyone can access support when they need it.
The store, on Bethnal Green Road, opens to the public for one day on 12th October at 10am. It will then move to The Bullring in Birmingham for one day on the 19th October.
Anne Mensah, VP of UK Content, Netflix said: "As Seen on Netflix is more than just a pop-up shop; it's a celebration of incredible fan communities. Fandom has an extraordinary ability to bring people together, creating connections and community around a passion for stories. Our fans are the heartbeat of everything we do at Netflix, which is why we’re so excited to create this opportunity for fans to own a piece of the shows and films they love, and support the important work done by Mind.”
Sarah Hughes, CEO of Mind, said: “We know that when mental health issues are explored on-screen, they can hold real power in helping us to understand our own experiences. Right now, we know that increased mental health support has never been more important. Two million people are currently stuck on waiting lists for NHS services, and many more feel unable to reach out for the help they need for fear of discrimination, being judged, or not being taken seriously.
“That’s why we are delighted to be joining forces with Netflix for this very special partnership, to make sure no mind is left behind. From exclusive props to iconic wardrobe pieces, there really is something on offer for everyone, and every item sold will help us be there for even more people who need us. This includes through our services and network of local Minds, campaigning for change and challenging stigma, to make sure everyone can access the support they need.”
Alvis, a moderator of r/HeartstopperAO community on Reddit, said: "The Heartstopper fan community is full of people from such a variety of backgrounds and of such a range of ages, who often share their queer joy, coming out stories, and experiences of acceptance and self-love - as well as how Heartstopper has played into them.
“People massively appreciate Heartstopper for its story, its characters, its visual identity, and of course the topics it discusses; many of which I know resonate especially deeply with those who, at Nick & Charlie’s age, may have lacked these discussions in media or in their own lives."
