We thank them for their contribution to our giant annual fundraiser - City Christmas Parking - and for all the work they do day to day for the local community.
After 12.5 days of braving the cold, rain and wind to staff our 2 Car parks we have succeeded this year to outstrip our wildest expectations and are thoroughlyy delighted by the results.
Our total exceeds £30,000 - precise figures available in the early new year.
