TESCO Hoyland donated 100 Christmas selection boxes to charity after responding to a challenge on Twitter.
Barbara Lee (@Wortlee1853) Tweeted: “Didn’t somebody once say ‘every little helps?’.”
The Tweet was in reference to the Barnardo’s Children’s Charity call for support. Tesco Hoyland replied on Twitter saying that they would love to help and they agreed to donate the selection boxes to surprise less fortunate children at Christmas.
The store also agreed to collect toys to donate to Barnardo’s.
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
