A CHARITY shop has undergone a revamp, which organisers hope will make it more appealing to customers.

The Teesside Hospice shop in Linthorpe Village, Middlesbrough, has had new fixtures, fittings and wall units fitted and a total re-design of the shop layout.

Due to reopen today at 10am, it is one of a chain of ten charity shops run by the Teesside Hospice Care Foundation across the Teesside area.

Tracy O'Donnell, charity shops area co-ordinator, said: "We would like to invite everyone to come along and celebrate the reopening of our shop.

"There will be lots of good quality bargains, including clothing, furniture and bric-a-brac.

"Teesside Hospice Care Foundation has to raise a staggering amount of money each day and the charity shops really are a very important aspect of the trading company.''

The foundation's other shops are at Acklam, Coulby Newham, Eston, Grove Hill, Guisborough, Marske, Redcar, Stokesley and Yarm.
