Below are the pictures of the presentations we made from the voting earlier in the year. Three groups are awarded £4000, £2000 or £1000, depending on the outcome of the vote carried out in store.

Other local community projects who have successfully applied and awarded cash from our Bags of Help scheme are Heighington Church of England Primary School, Woodhouse Close Church Community Centre, Bishop Auckland Table Tennis Club, Great Aycliffe Cancer Support Group, Richmondshire Leisure Trust and Our Lady & St Thomas Roman Catholic Primary School of Willington.

We encourage any other local community group who would like a little financial support towards a project they may already have in mind to apply by visiting our website tesco.com/bags of help or contact our dedicated helpline on 0121 237 5780.
