A CHILDREN'S Hospice shop is hoping a book sale is going to boost funds.

The Acorns Children's Hospice shop in Pershore High Street suffered a drop in sales after a series of roadworks near it.

The children's book sale will be held tomorrow.

The shop will offer five books for a pound in the sale. The shop forms a crucial revenue stream for the charity that supports over 600 chronically ill children and their families. It relies heavily on fundraising to support its vital services.
