(Stephen) "Hello there...welcome to Scope!"
(Stephen) "Welcome to our new Scope shop."
Well, I didn't know it was a charity shop from outside.
It's really, really good. It looks like a normal high street shop.
It's lovely and light and bright... and they've got some really good things.
Absolutely fantastic.
I'm Stephen Moody, I'm the area manager for Scope... Area 13 which is East Anglia and The Home Counties.
We're here today at the opening of our first new Scope shop...
...in Ely, is the location of this first new shop.
It's great that it's got all the new branding.
It's Market Day today as well so it's a great opportunity time to open a new store today.
We've had a great team this week setting up the store.
We couldn't have done it without them...
...and we had a volunteer open day on Wednesday where we opened the store for people to come volunteer.
We got about 17 new volunteers which is absolutely great.
It's absolutely lovely isn't it?
It's bright and it's colourful... and lots of lovely things.
It's great so I'm going to go see if I can spend some money now!
It didn't look like a charity shop - it looked like a normal boutique.
It's bright and its colourful with all the nice lights.
It's just fantastic! I really love it! Absolutely great so good luck!
This is the first of many hopefully - there are big plans to roll this out right across the country...
...so it means that the charity is moving forward and we're going to get our message out to more and more people...
...which can only be of benefit to the whole charity.
I'm totally 100% excited! It's absolutely brilliant.
We've been busy, we've had so much feedback on how the quality of everything is.
I love working for Scope - it really, really ,um... there's not a day where I wake up and don't want to go to work...
...and that's very rare in most work places nowadays.
Everyday is a challenge, you never know what you're going to deal with next...
You have all the balls in the air, all the time...
...but at the end of the day, you know you''ve made a difference and that's what's key for me.
