A HAMPSHIRE charity has appealed for unwanted clothes, toys and books to help stock its new shop.

Eastleigh-based Smile, Support & Care, which delivers respite care and support to youngsters with disabilities, wants the items to fill a planned new store. The charity has launched an appeal to build a £3.4m centre to enable youngsters with disabilities to enjoy a break away.

Work on the facility is already under way but fundraising is still continuing for the centre, in Waterlooville – also the location for the new charity shop.

Until the shop is open, all donations of stock can be taken to Smile’s Eastleigh office in Unit 3, Barton Park, off Chickenhall Lane, SO50 6RR.

Contact 023 8061 6215 to arrange delivery of any items.
