Dear Sir,
May I take this opportunity to thank the management and staff of Tesco’s supermarket in Newton Aycliffe for allowing us into their store to ask shoppers to add a tin to their shopping and donate it to the Foodbank.
In these days of competitive pricing and commercial interest it is wonderful that a leading retail organisation would give their time and selling space to a charity to help that organisation.
I should also like to thank those people who gave their time to stand and hand out leaflets, they all seemed to smile whilst I am sure their feet ached from standing – I know that mine did, thank you all very much.
Finally thank YOU, the shoppers at Tesco’s who gave most generously to aid the work of your foodbank, it is only by the generosity of people that we are able to help those who find themselves in food poverty.
Once again, many thanks to you all.
Ernie & June Temple
Foodbank Co-ordinators
