RESIDENTS starting to feel the rush of Christmas are being offered a helping hand - when it comes wrapping presents.

The Primrose Hospice has partnered with The Kingfisher Shopping Centre to provide a Christmas gift wrapping service.

For a suggested donation of just £1 people can get their presents wrapped.

All proceeds will go toward the charity, an independent charity offering advice and support to patients living with life limiting illnesses and their families in the region.

Staff from the hospice will be at Worcester Square in the Kingfisher Centre from now until Christmas Eve from 11am onwards.

The charity is also looking for volunteers to help with the service on December 18 and December 22, 23, and 24.

For more information about the gift wrapping service or to volunteer, call 01527 889796 or email info@primrosehospice.org.
