A Jobs Fair aimed at recruiting Christmas staff for retailers at the White Rose Shopping Centre proved a huge success for all concerned.

James Bailey, Centre Director for White Rose said:

“People were queuing past the New Look store when the Fair first opened and by 6pm  there had been more than 700 attendees which was a larger turnout than any of us were expecting.
