Share this story!

More than 50 Tesco store managers put their best foot forward on Wednesday 26th March as they walked more than 13 miles from the Tesco store in Thetford to its store in Brandon, all in aid of St Nicholas Hospice Care.

A large group of people gathered outside a Tesco store, many wearing blue St Nicholas Hospice Care T-shirts and hoodies. The group is posing together in the car park before a fundraising walk. At the front, several participants are holding a bright banner that reads: "We're doing it for St Nicholas Hospice Care" with the charity’s “because you matter” slogan. One person holds a donation bucket. The atmosphere is upbeat and community-focused.

The dedicated team, who have been fundraising for the Hospice over the past few months, and will continue over Easter, set themselves an ambitious target—and their efforts are much appreciated.

St Nicholas Hospice Care’s events manager, Charlie De-Moore, said: “On behalf of St Nicholas Hospice Care, I’d like to say a big thank you to everyone at Tesco for their incredible support.”

“As well as around 50 store managers completing a 13-mile walk from Tesco Thetford to Tesco Brandon, there has also been fantastic fundraising taking place in-store. We are so grateful for everything that has been done over the past few months in aid of St Nicholas Hospice Care.”

“Funds raised through activities like this are vital in helping to support the care and services the Hospice provides across the community. Well done, everyone.”

Donations can still be made via their JustGiving page.
