NATIONWIDE opened its doors to some prospective new employees this week.

Children who have parents working at the building society's offices in Swindon got the chance to see what their mum and dads do all day.

Bring your Children to Work Day was originally aimed at women, but Nationwide encourages both parents to bring their children to work.

In addition, the society runs the event for a week instead of just a day.

Becky Williams, 11, who attends Greenmeadow Primary school, went to work with her mum, Helene, at Nationwide's ISA Helpdesk at Kingsbridge Point, Princes Street.

Becky said: "I had a really great time and got the opportunity to do things I have never done before."
