The deputy manager of a Nottingham charity shop expects to lose hundreds of pounds after a van rolled down the road and smashed through the store's front window. Staff at the Oxfam store in Mansfield Road, Sherwood, said the damage was caused while a driver was making a delivery at a business across the street between 6am and 7am on Monday, October 17.
"A van was making a delivery, I'm not sure if she left her handbrake off or if it was faulty. She saw the bin men waving to her and then saw the van rolling down into the window," deputy manager Cerise Crossman told Nottinghamshire Live.
The shop estimated up to £300 of stock has been lost as a result, as shelves displaying items such as jewellery, crockery and camera lenses were destroyed. "Some good items have been damaged and insurance won't cover them as we haven't got the original receipts as they're second-hand," said Phil Gross, whose roles include store treasurer.
