Scope charity shop, Fleetwood

That this House regrets the closure of the Scope charity shop on Lord Street in Fleetwood after 20 years in its current location and further regrets that the charity shop space will instead be used to expand licenced space for gambling; praises the work done by shop manager Sharon Kenny and assistant shop manager Steph Bend; further praises the time given by regular volunteers Monique, Judith, James and his support workers, Janet, Julie, Pauline, Maggie, Karrone and Yulia; wishes all those who have worked hard over the years the very best for the future and hopes to see no further expansion of betting shops on the high street.
