A TELEVISION actor is coming to Leigh later this month to open a new shop.

Will Mellor, who has starred in Hollyoaks and Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps, has agreed to attend the grand opening of Warmlight Windows on Victoria Street in Leigh.

He will be there from 11am on Saturday, April 22.

The company will donate £500 to both Wigan and Leigh Hospice and Derian House Children’s Hospice as part of the unveiling of the shop.

There will also be a raffle on the day to win an Elite Rockdoor, with the proceeds going to the two hospices.
