Sainsbury’s Everard Close has raised more than £3,000 as part of the Local Charity of the Year scheme.

The money will go to Keech Hospice Care, which provides emotional and practical support for adults and children diagnosed with a life-limiting condition.

Their aim is to help patients enjoy the highest quality of life, while also providing vital support for their family and friends.

The group was chosen by customers and colleagues last June and has received support from the store for the past year.

This year, the store will be supporting either FEED, The Crescent or The St Albans & District Bereavement Network.
