The sale is the culmination of a three-month effort by the store to raise awareness for the charity, which included participation in Challenge 100.

During the event, members of staff covered a distance of 100 miles by foot, bicycles, and even go-karts.

Store director at the new opticians, Mark Gibson said: "We have been overwhelmed by the support we have received while fundraising for Epilepsy Society, a charity that is very close to our hearts.

"We now want to invite both customers and the wider community to come together in a final push to raise as much money as possible for the charity."

All earnings from the bake sale will add to a sum already collected from former fundraising campaigns, which at the end of the month will be donated directly to the Epilepsy Society; the UK’s leading provider of epilepsy services, funding research, and providing resources and advice.
