A Newquay not-for-profit project that upcycles clothing and supports parents is in a race against time to find a new home.
The Clothes Horse, which provides donated clothes - including school uniforms - in exchange for contributions, has been given notice to leave its current premises on Seymour Avenue. It is understood that the landlord is putting the building up for sale.
