WAITROSE CUSTOMERS HELP RAISE £353 FOR LEAGUE

Waitrose customers played a big part in raising more than £350 for Torbay Hospital League of Friends in their quest to raise £1.6million to help equip the planned new Critical Care Unit at the hospital.

     Every customer who passes through the checkout is given a little green token which they can drop in a series of boxes to choose which charity receives cash from the store.

     Waitrose’s Mark Elmer said:  ‘The League was hugely popular, as always, and we are thrilled to help raise funds for this vital unit’.

     League Chairman Dave Rogers said:  ‘Without the help of people like Waitrose and their customers we couldn’t do our vital work.

     ‘The people and businesses of Torbay are incredibly generous and supportive of our efforts’.
