THOMAS Cook staff from Ulverston and Barrow enjoyed a day at the football this weekend courtesy of Barrow AFC.
Earlier this week Barrow AFC announced they were giving away free tickets to Saturday's game for Thomas Cook staff in the local area.
This comes after thousands of people lost their jobs when the travel retailer collapsed.
A club spokesman said: "It was our pleasure to welcome the former Barrow & Ulverston branch Thomas Cook employees to today’s game, we’re told they had a great time, at what was a first ever football match for many of them"
