Tesco thanks customers for their ‘overwhelming generosity’

TESCO stores across the East Riding have been “overwhelmed” by the generosity of customers who donated at the Tesco Winter Food Collection.

- 

According to the supermarket, more than 6,000 meals were donated.More than 2,000 volunteers across the UK helped store colleagues throughout the collection, with every item donated providing much-needed support for food redistribution charities FareShare and Trussell in the run-up to Christmas.

In addition, more than £300,000 was donated to both charities thanks to customers rounding up their bill at the till to the nearest pound and online donations throughout the collection period.
