Volunteers are being called upon to help sell furniture and bric-a-brac

Volunteers are being called upon to help sell furniture and bric-a-brac at a charity shop.

Sue Ryder is recruiting helpers for various roles at its shop in Dark Lane, Harpenden.

Money raised for Sue Ryder shops helps support people with conditions including cancer, heart failure and lung disease at its seven hospices across the UK.

Terry Pocock, a current volunteer at the shop, said: "When I retired I found I needed something to keep me busy, and volunteering at Sue Ryder turned out to be ideal.

“It’s a great way to meet new people and a pleasure to give something back to the community."

Steve Harris, manager at the store in Harpenden, said: "We’d love some extra support at our shop so we can maximise our sales to support Sue Ryder’s care for people with life-changing conditions.

"We’d also love some extra donations of good quality furniture, books and bric-a-brac, which can be dropped off at the shop.

“Alternatively, you can arrange to have your furniture collected from your home, for free, when you fill out the form online.”
