Hospice shop gets a revamp
1:01pm Wednesday 15th March 2006
A HOSPICE shop is celebrating 10 years of service to the community.
As part of the Greenwich and Bexley Cottage Hospice shop's anniversary, it underwent a week of redecoration before being reopened on March 2.
The revamping of the shop in Greenwich High Road, Greenwich, involved putting in laminated flooring.
Shop manager Sue Chesworth says the shop's success is down to good quality clothing and gifts.
She added: "Everyone is made to feel welcome, the atmosphere is great and many customers are regulars and become friends.
"Our aim is to raise as much money as possible for the hospice."
The shop is open from 10am to 4pm, seven days a week.
