STAFF at Gardiner Haskins home store in Cirencester showed up to work in the wrong trousers today.

Silly trousers were tolerated at the store for the Wallace and Gromit's Grand Appeal to support Bristol Children's Hospital Charity.

Store manager Richard Newman was commended for his creative work wear, a bold fish-themed suit and bright orange patent shoes.

Staff donated up to £2 each to take part in the appeal.

Since 1995, The Grand Appeal has generated over £40 million to transform the lives of sick babies and children at the hospital and special care baby unit.
