Shop raising money for Colchester-based charity
A shop has come up with an innovative way to raise money for charity.
Staff at Whites Farm Baby Barn, on Bures Road, between Bures and White Colne, will be wearing full Colchester United kits for the month of April.
Customers are being asked to make a donation to The Tom Bowdidge Foundation - set up in memory of the 19-year-old from Colchester who died in October 2013 from desmoplastic small round cell tumour and extensive peritoneal disease.
The shop is also holding a raffle with prizes including a shirt signed by Colchester United.
Tickets are available from the shop.
