Children’s ward supported by shoppers

The store’s green token scheme gives customers the chance to nominate a cause for Asda to support by dropping tokens they receive after shopping into their chosen charity box.

The majority of shoppers during the past few months voted to support the MacGregor children’s ward at the hospital, which will spend the money on buying new children’s chairs for its playroom and sensory toys for children with special needs receiving care on the ward.

Ward manager Maggie Ward said: “We would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who supported us by donating their green tokens to MacGregor Ward.”
