A NEW charity shop coming to Great Harwood is appealing for volunteers.

East Lancashire Hospice will open its fifth charity shop in Queen Street in March.

The hospice is looking for volunteers, who have a few hours to spare each week, to help run the shop.

The charity, which provides care to people across East Lancashire with terminal illnesses and supports their families, needs to raise in excess of £2.8million every year.
