Staff and volunteers at a Norwich charity shop are urging animal lovers to donate unwanted items to help sick and injured pets.

Norwich PDSA says it is desperate for good quality donations including furniture, CDs, DVDs, books and toys, as well as men and women's clothing.

Dawn Cowie, manager at the shop, on Queen's Road, said: 'Perhaps your wardrobe is bulging with unworn clothes or your shelves are full of books you never read? Why not have a clear-out and donate your unwanted items to PDSA?'

She said the shop was also appealing for local people to volunteer in branch.

Miss Cowie added: 'We're looking for enthusiastic volunteers who are passionate about pets and who can lend a hand.'
