Waitrose New Malden lends its support to the FNNU

We're delighted that we have been chosen as one of the three charities set to benefit from a share of £1000, thanks to Waitrose's community involvement.

Each month customers can nominate a charity of their choice for consideration. The staff then choose the 3 charities that will compete for the largest share of the £1000. From over 40 nominations the staff unanimously voted for us to be included as one of the three charities.

Between now and November 22nd each shopper gets a green disc, which they use to vote for the charity they favour. At the end of the month the votes are tallied up, and the £1000 is distributed among the charities, in proportion to the votes cast. So the more votes we receive the more cash we get.

If you are shopping in New Malden, and find yourselves in Waitrose, please remember us!
