'We just don't get the footfall': Volunteers' sadness with shop forced to shut months after opening
A charity shop team is being forced to close the doors less than a year after opening, thanks to a lack of customers.
Lisa Eden, manager at the YMCA shop in Cannock Shopping Centre, has announced that she will close the door of her beloved store next week after experiencing a 'lack of footfall'.
The charity shop only opened a little under a year ago.
Lisa said: "It really is sad. We just don't get the footfall. We have the market day on Friday, but honestly, people just don't really come in here anymore.
"It's a real shame as these types of shops are really needed these days I think. It's really just all about the footfall. In the current situation, it just couldn't keep us going."
