STAFF at Tesco in Fosseway, Stow, are getting into the spirit of Christmas and raising money for a good cause at the same time.

Several of them are dressing as Santa on Friday December 12 and completing laps around the supermarket car park as a tongue-in-cheek attempt to walk to the North Pole.

They are also holding a community fair in the car park on Saturday December 13 with different stalls with charities and others selling Christmas gifts. There will also be children's rides.

The money raised is going to wards the diabetes charity.
