Without them, you wouldn’t be able to open the store and trade. I make sure my team are trained to complete their tasks to the best of their ability and we work together in any areas of weakness. We have a great online learning platform which is available to all employees, and we use that to learn more about new products which arrive on our deliveries every week.My favourite day of the week is a Saturday as this is the day, we get to demo toys to the kids (both big kids and actual children). We are interactive with them and show them how the toys work so that they are inspired by play. You never know a person’s situation, but if we can bring joy and playtime to the children that walk into our shops then I call that a massive success!”– Amber, Store Manager
