Liverpool hotel to give away 1,500 items of furniture

A Liverpool hotel is donating about 1,500 items of furniture to charities as part of a multi-million pound refurbishment.

Mattresses, bedside tables, sofas and lighting from all 216 rooms and suites at the Pullman Liverpool are being replaced.

General manager Stephen Rycroft said he hoped to find new homes for the items and save them from landfill.

Items from the hotel are being offered to charitable organisations across the Liverpool City Region.
