Carnaby shop wants to help a local charity
ONE local charity could get a £500 or more windfall thanks to a local factory shop.
The Original Factory Shop on Covert Lane in Carnaby, Bridlington is aiming to make a difference to the local community by choosing one local cause as its chosen charity for the next 12 months.
Store manager, Melanie Tebbett, said: "The Original Fa

"Over the years we've raised money for a whole host of local charities and organisations but we've decided to support just one from November for a year so that we can really make a big difference to them."
The shop is seeking nominations of any local cause which needs a helping hand, from mother and toddler groups, a local children's football team or any type of help or support group.
Anyone wishing to nominate their organisation simply has to drop a letter off at the store in the next fortnight saying why they think that they should be The Original Factory Shop's charity partner in Bridlington.
A year long programme of fundraising activity is planned by colleagues at the store, with a minimum target of £500.00 looking to be raised for the chosen charity.
