TWO Renfrewshire charities are looking for people to show their goodwill and make donations to help refurbish a store in Lochwinnoch.
This Christmas, St. Vincent’s Hospice and Change Lochwinnoch are appealing for donations to help them raise £1,500 to reach their target amount to refurbish the shop in the heart of the village.
The Change Lochwinnoch project was launched by a group of volunteers in the community with close ties to the life-changing work of the hospice.

The group is aiming to give the shop a complete refurbishment, creating a modern, warm and welcoming space for the community.
One of the key members of the group and dedicated supporter of St. Vincent’s, Dr Morag Thow, said: “We have been working extremely hard for the last several months towards our goal of refurbishing the shop, which means so much to so many people across the area, and so far the response has been fantastic. However, this Christmas we need your help to get over the finish line.”
