17 May 2023

LOROS Hospice is excited to announce the relocation and grand opening of their Market Harborough shop to a bigger and better location.

The shop will open its doors to the public at 10.30am on Tuesday 23rd May, and to mark the occasion, there will be a ribbon cutting ceremony with a promotional voucher for residents to use on their first purchase. Local residents are invited to attend and celebrate. Rita Berry, a long-serving volunteer since 1991, will have the honour of cutting the ribbon to officially open the shop.

With a light airy shop space, the new shop located at 8 Coventry Road, Market Harborough, LE16 9BZ, offers an even bigger selection of great value items for local residents to browse. From men’s and women’s clothing to bric-a-brac, home decorations and ornaments, books and DVDs, there’s something for everyone to explore and find their new favourite item at a bargain price.

As part of the grand opening, local residents will have the opportunity to find out more about volunteering at the shop and how they can give back to their local community.

Gary McMillan-Dale, Retail Manager at LOROS Hospice said: “The grand opening of our Market Harborough shop is a special occasion for LOROS, and we’re excited to continue providing our vital services to the local community. We look forward to welcoming Market Harborough residents to our new shop and sharing the day with them.

“We’re also looking for 25 amazing volunteers to help us with a variety of roles in the shop. Whether you love fashion, enjoy meeting new people, or just want to make a difference in your community, we have something for you. With flexible scheduling, we welcome volunteers of all backgrounds and experiences. Join our team and be part of something special.”

All the profits from the shop will go directly to LOROS Hospice, which is dedicated to delivering free, high-quality, compassionate care and support to terminally ill patients, their families and carers.
