RUGBY player Charlie Sharples made a special appearance in Gloucester to officially open a new charity shop.
Footsteps Counselling and Care has just opened its new charity shop in Westgate Street.
The charity offers help to families, who have suffered pregnancy-related problems like postnatal depression and issues around adoption.
Counsellor Katherine Goatley said: "The shop will sell anything that has been donated with all proceeds going to the counselling service which is offered in the rooms upstairs.
"We have completely refurbished the derelict building."
