Politicians including Sir Menzies Campbell (Fife store), George Osbourne (Alderley Edge) and Lembit Opik will all volunteer to help raise vital funds for families living in poverty. The MPs will be getting involved in everything from steaming clothes and restocking the shop floor to window display and pricing.
