Tesco grants have been handed out to two more local projects as a result of their Bag of Help Incentive.
Cherry Burton Primary School and Skidby Village Hall & Institute are the latest groups awarded cash from the scheme.
Head Teacher Mrs Dawn Joy at Cherry Burton School said she was delighted at news the school had been awarded £2,000.
Money was granted to them for their project ‘Trim Trail’ which will benefit pupils at the school.
Explaining how the money would be used while also expressing her gratitude she said;
“We are delighted to have received these funds. We are going to provide a piece of brand new climbing equipment for our older children. This will keep them entertained and physically active at playtime.”
“Thanks go to our Friends of School who are supporting this. Also, we would like to thank all Tesco customers who voted for us.”
