The very first Princess Alice Hospice shop, in Weybridge High Street, is reopening with a new look.

The shop will re-open as a mini department store, introducing furniture and home furnishings sections to the usual collection fashion and books.

The first Princess Alice Hospice shop opened in Weybridge 28 years ago, in a unit donated by Barclays Bank.

Of the £7.2m the charity needs each year to continue its work, it must raise 75 per cent through voluntary donations and fundraising.

The Princess Alice Hospice provides end of life care to adult patients and support to their families across Surrey and south-west London.

The new shop will open at 10am on Wednesday, April 4.
