AN ALCESTER Specsavers store is supporting a food bank in the area with a significant donation, just in time for Christmas.

The store on High Street will donate £1 from the sale of each eye test in their store between Sunday, November 29 and Monday, December 13.

Donations will be sent through The Trussell Trust, which manages the local food bank.

Paul Griffiths, store director at Specsavers Alcester, said: "Our local community is continuing to recover from the impact of the pandemic, and many are still finding life very difficult. We see people from our nearby community every day in our store and hear their stories – so we feel very strongly about doing our bit to support them.

"Funds raised will mean much needed grocery supplies can be bought to give directly to families in need in our community, helping them to get through the festivities and school holidays with plenty to eat."
