IN LIGHT of the recent robberies of shops across the town and the attack on the shop assistant who had her hair ripped out I would like to make those affected aware of the Retail Trust which is a charity that helps people who work in retail.
The trust offers free counselling and hardship grants to those who have worked in retail for at least two years.
For further information visit the website www.retailtrust.org.uk or telephone the trust on 0808 801 0808.
