SARAH, Carol and all the volunteers from the Sue Ryder shop in Holyrood Street would like to say a big thank you to all our customers over the years.

They have brought in donations, browsed in the shop, helped with our mad, funny fundraising ideas, supported us in anything we have done and helped us be one of the top shops in the South-West.

We have really enjoyed our job. We are one big family and our customers are part of it, too.

We have had great fun helping you – from finding you fancy dress outfits, to having banter with you or just sitting down and having a chat.

We have enjoyed it all – we have had fun, tears and laughter over the years and cannot thank our families, friends and our customers enough.

We will sincerely miss you but hope to see you around town sometime.
