STAFF AND CUSTOMERS at a Moray supermarket have managed to raise over £600 to help send three local Kickboxing stars to the World Championships.
Rebecca White, Ellie Scott and Jason Fletcher, members of the SFEAR club in the Moray town, have been selected to represent Scotland at the championships in Italy next week.
