Surprised shoppers helped raise money for Children in Need by donating to a group of women walking up and down Borehamwood high street in their pyjamas.

Staff at Select, in Borehamwood raised £400 for Children in Need in just one day, by carrying around collection buckets dressed in their nightwear.

Manager Debbie Joseph said: “We had lots of giggles with everyone laughing at our outfits, but we didn’t let them get away with having a laugh and not contributing to the buckets.

“It was really good fun and luckily it was quite warm. It really was amazing and everyone was very generous.”
