Achievement: Clare Robertson

As it is GazetMe’s purpose to enable our users to track their many achievements, here at GazetMe Towers we thought we’d start an occasional series of reports highlighting notable achievements by individuals across the country.

First up then we celebrate the achievements of Clare Robertson. Now fans of Woolworths and residents of Dorchester may already be familiar with her story, but for anyone who isn’t, Clare is the former Woolworths manager who decided not to give up when the company collapsed last year. Wasting no time, she made arrangements to take over the lease of her store in Dorchester, Dorset, rehired staff, engaged with suppliers, and reopened the store under the name ‘Wellworths’ to local acclaim. A year on, Robertson’s store is doing well and looking forward to good Christmas trading. All in, a great achievement. You can read the full story here. Clare: we salute you.
