A new charity has opened its fundraising shop which is believed to be the first of its kind in the UK.

Priscilla Bacon Hospice, an end-of-life care charity which launched in August, has set up a 'box shop' which aims to raise funds to support end-of-life care services in Norfolk.

The outlet is constructed of stripped and refitted shipping containers and have been designed based on the world's first pop-up mall in Shoreditch, London.

Goods inside the shop include books, clothing, and bric-a-brac. The facility is situated on School Lane, Drayton, Norwich.

Rosemary Fereday, the charity's head of retail, said: 'We are delighted to be trading in Drayton and Iam extremely thankful to all our hard-working staff and volunteers who have rallied round to get the new shop up and running.

'The local community have made us feel very welcome and I would urge local people to pop by our fantastic new shop, meet the team, and have a look through some of our high quality items.

'Every purchase or item donated to the shop will help Priscilla Bacon Hospice achieve its objective of supporting palliative care in Norfolk.'

The shop was officially opened by Lady Susan Bacon, daughter-in-law of the late Lady Priscilla Bacon, after whom the Priscilla Bacon Lodge hospice at Colman Hospital is named.

It is open between 9.30am-5pm every day except Sunday.

If you are interested in volunteering at the shop, please email Rosemaryfereday@priscillabaconhospice.org.uk
