25 May 2016

Tesco Extra at Beaumont Shopping Centre have very generously donated a selection of bedding plants and seeds for use by the Day Therapy patients at LOROS.

Samiya Kader, Charity Champion and Community Space Co-ordinator at the Tesco store said: "My husband was cared for by LOROS before he passed away so it is especially pleasing that our store was able to support LOROS patients.

"It was a delight to present the staff with our contribution to the Day Therapy's ongoing appeal and I hope the patients get real enjoyment from sowing and nurturing the seeds and potting up the plants."

Magdalena Korytkowska, Corporate Fundraising Co-ordinator at LOROS added: “I would like to thank all the colleagues at the Tesco store for organising such a thoughtful gift for our patients - I'm sure they will derive great pleasure from watching the plants grow." Alt text
