Shoppers at Helston’s Tesco store were able to splash out on a car wash as part of their visit recently.

The town’s firefighters set up camp in the car park and put the pumps to a different use, washing cars for charity.

In total £600 was raised, which will be split between The Firefighters Charity and Diabetes UK.

Nikki Walker, from the supermarket, said: “We would like to thank our customers for their support.”
