£1500 donation from Tesco

We were thrilled to receive a donation of £1500 from Tesco, following their in-store shopper votes.

Tesco in Rugby provided in-store shoppers, and staff at their Daventry Clothing Distribution Centre with a blue token to pop into one of three charity pots during October-December 2022, and we came out with the most votes meaning that you have all helped Guy’s Gift to receive a donation of £1500.

This donation means that we’re able to provide one-to-one support and counselling for children and young people who experience significant bereavement, and to help them to understand death and develop coping strategies.

Grief can be a tricky thing to navigate as a child, so knowing that we have the support of our local community to continue to help children and young people find their way through what can be a challenging time, shows how valuable and valued Guy’s Gift is.

Thanks to Tesco for your support, and thanks to everyone who voted for us in store and at the distribution centre at the end of last year!
