Sussex hospice seeks to change Arundel shopfront for new charity shop
A Sussex hospice is planning to open a charity shop in Arundel and wants permission to change the colours in line with the brand.
St Wilfrid's Hospice is taking a fresh lease at the ground-floor shop in High Street, once the home of the West Sussex Gazette.
An application for listed building consent to change the shopfront colours has been submitted to Arun District Council, to include adding decals to the window glazing to match the brand of St Wilfrid's other branches.
In the heritage statement, agent Marshall Clark LLP said: “The existing shopfront is a glazed decorative joinery screen for which there are no proposals whatsoever to change or adapt the actual joinery.
“The finish to the joinery is a dark brown woodstain treatment being typical of its Victorian vintage and matches the exposed joinery and bay windows to the upper floor levels.
“The intentions are to recoat the surface treatment to match the corporate colour for St Wilfrid's and add surface applied decals to glazing only which will be easily removed as and when end of lease occurs at no detriment to the shopfront joinery itself.”
Comments to be made by July 2.
