A BRAVE shop assistant in Colchester could soon find herself in a sticky situation after volunteering to take part in her shop’s annual campaign.
Beth Vamhimsbergh, from Lush Cosmetics, in Sir Isaac’s Walk, Colchester, has agreed to be covered in “oil”, or in actual fact, a type of molasses treacle, and draped in the Canadian flag.
The protest aims to mark the launch of Lush’s campaign against Canadian tar sands oil, which the store says is destroying ancient forests.
The unusual stunt will take place in the store at midday, on Thursday.
