Former England test cricketer and Essex star Peter Such opened a new children's charity shop in Chelmsford.

The Little Haven Children's Hospice shop, formally opened in Moulsham Street, will sell furniture and household items to raise cash for the charity.

It is the sixth Little Haven shop to open in Essex and joins another on Moulsham Street which sells clothes, toys, bric-a-brac and books.

The hospice cares for children and their families who are affected by life-threatening illnesses across Essex.
