STAFF at a Wyre Forest gift retailer are over the moon after receiving a prestigious award at a glitzy ceremony. 

Mooch Gifts and Home, which has stores in Stourport and Bewdley, was given the 'Best In-Store Window Display' prize at the Gift Awards in London. 

Mooch co-founder Jon May said he was "flabbergasted" after Mooch was announced as a prize-winner at the black-tie event, which was held at the Royal Lancaster hotel last week. 

It's a national award where Mooch was one of six finalists across the UK. The award is sponsored by Gisella Graham of London, known worldwide for her home accessories and decorations. 

Mr May said he was proud that his window displays for Halloween and Christmas last year have been recognised. 

He said: "I was flabbergasted, when they called out my name I was in shock. 

"It's just the icing on the cake. It's quite nice to get that recognition".
