A former supermarket in Lichfield has been earmarked as a donation centre for a charity.
The Eastern Avenue site has previously been home to Lidl before it moved to a new location at the nearby Imperial Retail Park.
The Salvation Army Trading Company is set to bring the building back to use.
Alongside its traditional stores, the charity operates 26 larger donation centres across the country.
“Larger in size than our typical charity shops, these stores are designed to receive donations of household items such as furniture and homeware, alongside the kind of clothing, books and other pre-loved items commonly found in charity shops.
“The money generated from the sale of these items is used to support the Salvation Army’s ongoing mission to help those in need.”

The charity has applied for planning permission to install new signage on the building.
As well as a collection centre, the charity said sites were often used for other purposes too, such as food bank donation points.
“Our donation centres have become community hubs, offering a place for people to come together and spend time in a warm and welcoming environment, whether as part of the team or as a visitor just popping in to say hello.”
