STAFF at TK Maxx in Redditch are holding a range of fundraising events in preparation for this year’s Red Nose Day.

As part of the fundraiser, the store is selling Red Nose Day t-shirts for men, women and kids, onesies, aprons and tea towels.

On Saturday, March 7, Martin Mawdsley, the store manager of the Kingfisher's TK Maxx, will be taking part in The Major Series, a 5km obstacle fun run assault course held in Warwickshire, alongside all the managers in the district.

Dale O’ Keeffe, team leader at TK Maxx in Redditch, said: “We're trying to raise as much money as possible in sponsorship and donations for his fantastic effort.

“It is a company incentive. We do it because it can help children here and in Africa.

“Last year we raised £5.3 million as a company and everyone enjoys dressing up. We want to raise more and more.”

So far, the store has raised £2,000 for the charity campaign.
