THIS is the full list of people who can have a Company Shop membership at the store in Darlington.

The discount supermarket has just extended its criteria for who can join up so more than 5,000 charity workers in the area can apply. 

The store, which opened last year, sells branded goods and goods from major retailers including Tesco, M&S, Sainsbury's and Waitrose.

It is based in Haughton Road and stocks food, drink and household goods that have been made ‘surplus’ from major brands and retailers and sell at about 50 per cent less than recommended retail price.
