COUNCILLOR David Vickers is holding his annual charity Christmas card shop at Stourbridge Library.
The Halesowen South councillor has run the festive shop in the adult section of the Crown Centre library for more than 15 years to help give charities close to his heart a boost.
He hopes to keep it open every week day, from 9.30am until 5pm, although it will only be open half a day on Thursdays, and it will run from 9am until 5pm on Saturdays - up until Saturday December 13.
This year the cards being sold in aid of the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (lifeboat charity), Mary Stevens Hospice, Birmingham Settlement, Mission to Seaman, Eczema, Cystic Fibrosis, Fibromyalgia (Stourbridge branch), and the leukaemia unit at Russells Hall.
All the proceeds will go directly to the charities.
