Alton charity shop Resurrection Furniture has donated £1,000 to Chawton House towards the costs of its Pride & Prejudice Rose Garden.

A spokesperson for Resurrection Furniture said: “Our volunteers Kay, Jane, Nick and Paul spent a couple of hours helping out in the gardens. It was a lovely sunny day and they had a great time.

“We continue to help lots of local charities and good causes. We can only continue to do this with the loyal support from our customers and the very kind people that donate furniture and other items to us.”

Resurrection Furniture only accepts items in good condition, and sofas require the fire safe label to still be attached.
