WORKERS at a Stanley supermarket struggled through the snow, wind and rain to get to work on Monday - just so they could sit in a bath of blancmange.
The five women from the ASDA store were raising money for the 'Tickled Pink Fund for Breast Cancer' appeal.
And such was their devotion to the cause they took turns over the course of the day to sit in the gooey bath.
Shop worker and ASDA Stanley publicity officer, Joyce Clark, said by way of explanation for the stunt: "We just thought what could we do for the Tickled Pink fund and thought 'what's pink?...pink blancmange.'
"It's not so bad in here really and we're certainly not short of anything to eat!"
The five women have already raised £200 in sponsorship for the charity stunt and hoped to raise more from passing shoppers during the day.
To make the bath they used 150 packets of blancmange and 150 pints of milk
