Co-operative colleagues are on the hunt for local causes who want to fundraise with nearby stores in 2021.
Southern Co-op’s local food stores currently have 169 charity partners which range from scout groups and pre-schools to food banks and healthcare trusts.
With a lot of fundraising cancelled last year, these existing local partnerships will continue into 2021 but there are 33 stores which are still looking for a nearby cause to support.
The Co-operative Food stores appealing for a new partner are spread across Berkshire, Dorset, Devon, Hampshire, London, Somerset, Surrey, Sussex, and Wiltshire.
Holly Bramble, community and campaign co-ordinator at Southern Co-op, said: “We all know how devastating 2020 has been for charities and local causes as the majority of fundraising activities had to be cancelled or put on hold.
