Helping the helpers: Teresa Butler and Sheila Cooper offer tips on selling to the fundraising team from Barclays head office

Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

STORE wars broke out in Woodley last Friday and it was all thanks to the bank.

A team from Barclays head office in London visited the Helen and Douglas House Hospice shop in the Crockhamwell Road shopping precinct to set up a special fundraising stall.

On offer were bundles of games, CDs, DVDs and goodies plus homemade cakes and refreshments.

Every penny raised from their pop-up shop went to the charity and there was contest between different Barclays teams across the country to see who could raise the most for the charities they were representing.
