05/04/2011 @ 02:38

 

The Montgomeryshire MS Society was celebrating this week after receiving a £500 donation from Tesco.
 
Staff at the new superstore presented Support Officer Su Rollinson with the cheque, which will be used to help the charity continue the work they do for local people with MS. 
 
Store Manager Linda McGill said: “It is a pleasure to be able to support local charities such as the Montgomeryshire MS Montgomeryshire Society. The store has only been open a short while but my team and I have been working with the local community for a long time now and are dedicated to working with as many local groups, charities and schools as we can.”
 
Su Rollinson was delighted to receive financial support from the new supermarket. She said: “This donation means so much to me, my colleagues and all those who use the Montgomeryshire MS Society services.
 
“The money will provide grants for equipment, transport and to subsidise social meetings throughout the year. The branch provides funds for the monthly MS Clinic waiting room at the Montgomery County Infirmary, Newtown. It also supports the Disability Sailing days financially at Clywedog Sailing Club during the summer months.”
