An oil painting left in a Chepstow charity shop sold for £8,000 at auction last week. An eagle eyed volunteer in the St Davids Foundation shop spotted the painting by Julian Trevelyan, took it home to do some research on the internet and contacted Sotheby's in London to get a valuation.
Well done that woman. The money will be put towards the hospice-at-home running costs, providing care for patients in their own homes.
