This is an article I wrote during four weeks of work experience whilst I was at the local papers the Spalding Guardian and the Lincolnshire Free press:
Spruce-up for town charity shop:
A charity shop in Spalding has undergone a major refurbishment. The St Barnabas Hospice Shop in New Road, which supports local charities like Spalding’s Jenny Freeman Lodge, was reopened by South Holland and the Deepings MP John Hayes. Volunteer manager Lisa Thomas was very pleased with the shop’s new look and thinks it’s helping sales. She said: “There is more space and a fresher look and it looks less cluttered. Overall it is much more welcoming and thanks to that we’ve had a good few days.” Any money raised from the shop stays in Spalding helps to fund local hospices.
