A shop has celebrated a major landmark in Rutherglen after turning 30 this month.
The Prince & Princess of Wales Hospice Shop marked the milestone last Friday.
They opened in 1993 to provide high-quality second-hand items to the local community while generating vital funds to support hospice services.

Over the years, the shop has played an essential role in raising funds for hospice care, contributing to the comfort and well-being of patients facing life-limiting illnesses.
Volunteers, staff, and supporters have worked together tirelessly to ensure that the shop remains at the heart of its local community.
Nicola Cannon, hospice shop manager, said: “We would just like to say a big thank you to our volunteers, former staff, customers, donators, and local community who have all over the last 30 years made the shop what it is today, a vibrant part of the Rutherglen community!
“We’re incredibly touched by the kindness which local people show the hospice with their support. Each item bought or donated really does make a difference to patients living with life-limiting and terminal illnesses.”
