A new shop is opening in aid of a local charity.
The Play and Resource Centre (PARC), based at the Discovery Centre in Great Notley, will launch their new store in Rayne Road, Braintree on June 23.
The shop hopes to offer young adults with learning difficulties the opportunity to gain an NVQ qualification in retail.
It will also offer information about PARC to families who are unable to travel to the Discovery Centre.
