Many local residents were on hand to watch the official opening, and listen while the Chief Executive and the Chairman of the Rowan’s Hospice spoke of their admiration for the staff and volunteers who ensure that the work of the hospice can continue to help local people.

After the opening there was a queue at the till as many people found bargains in the shop!
