Shoppers at a Highbridge supermarket are being invited to spread a little Christmas cheer by donating gifts to needy people in the local area.
Burnham-On-Sea Rotary Club has this week launched a collection box in the entrance foyer of Highbridge’s Asda supermaket which will enable it to pass on gifts to those who are less fortunate in our society.
“This Christmas there will be people within our community who will have very little or nothing to show that somebody cares,” explained Rotary President Roy Twining to Burnham-On-Sea.com.
“Our aim is to bring just a little happiness to those, what ever their age, with a small gift given by those who care. With the kind help of Asda, we are collecting at this store from November 17th to December 15th.”
“We are inviting shoppers to place their contributions within the box provided and these will be collected daily and gift wrapped for distribution during the week of Christmas.”
“The Club is extremely grateful to the management at Asda for allowing us carry out this collection.”
