Store director Ambreena Bhatti said: "We simply couldn’t resist the chance to join in the Halloween fun and take part in the Stand Up To Cancer campaign.

"We all love dressing up and Halloween is arguably the best day of the year to do it, so we thought we’d take full

advantage.

"As well as it being the perfect excuse to come to work in fancy dress and enjoy some sweet treats, it was a great opportunity to help fund the incredible work of Cancer Research UK.

"We would like to say thank you to the staff who got stuck in and to all our customers and passers-by who made a donation over the two days."
