**St Giles Hospice’s network of shops has raised over £10 million after 27 years
of supporting the charity’s work in and around Lichfield.**

The hospice’s first shop opened in 1985 in Lichfield. Since then a network of 21
shops has been established across the region.

Thanking volunteers, shoppers and donors, Lynwen Truesdale, Head of Retail for St
Giles Hospice, said: “Every St Giles Hospice shop is run by a dedicated Shop Manager
who is supported by a friendly and attentive team of volunteers who are happy to
help our loyal, returning customers while tending to the needs of our first-time
visitors.”
