A city foodbank will open with reduced hours during the Queen's funeral.
The funeral of Her Majesty will be held next Monday, September 19, with the day declared a national bank holiday.
Many businesses across the country have announced they are closing as a mark of respect, and to allow their staff a chance to pay tribute to Queen Elizabeth II.
However, Worcester Foodbank in Lowesmoor will remain open for those who need it.
Ruth Allsopp, operations co-ordinator, has said they are expecting a reduced number of clients and so will open for reduced hours.
The foodbank will be open for collection and deliveries from 11am to 12:30pm.
