A WORCESTER charity has issued a big "thank you" to kind-hearted residents who have donated items of furniture to those less fortunate than themselves.

Armchair, which aims to provide people on low incomes with household furnishings, had a long list of city residents desperate for furniture, including beds, dressing tables and three-piece suites.

"Thanks to the Evening News, I have received 27 phone calls from people offering their old items," chairman Margaret Jones said.

The charity accepts all quality household items, but nothing electrical, and will happily collect.

To donate any items of furniture contact Armchair on 01905 456080.
