A Kenilworth charity shop is set to close alongside nearly 200 other branches nationwide.

The Cancer Research UK shop on Warwick Road will shut as the national charity axes 190 locations.

Around 90 of those - including the one in Kenilworth - will close by the end of May.

The rest will disappear from the high street by the end of April 2027.

Cancer Research said 320 "high-performing" locations will remain.

Michelle Mitchell, CEO of Cancer Research UK, added: "Without action, we predict many of our shops will become unprofitable.

"This news will be difficult. Our decisions have been taken after serious consideration.

"We're committed to supporting everyone affected by these changes, and will provide clear information and support throughout the process."
