A TEXTILE recycling bank has been set up to raise funds for children, young people and their families who have experienced a bereavement.

Noah's Ark Trust is asking Wyre Forest residents to bring any unwanted clothes or textiles to its new bank at Stourport Co-op in Lombard Street.

If you would like to make a donation to the trust, organise a fund-raising event or support in any other way, call 01905 745735.

The Worcestershire and Herefordshire charity is also on the lookout for new locations for textile banks.
