For those of you who are not yet aware, back in September I proposed our community allotment, the DigIn, as one of the charities at my local (Leigh-on-Sea) Waitrose, which has their Community Matters green tokens scheme. I received a call last week to say we had been chosen to be one of the 3 charities in January. This means that we will get a percentage of £1,000. It will depend on how many tokens our charity gets so, if you have friends or family who live in Leigh, please ask them to shop at Waitrose as frequently as possible in January and put a token in for the Manchester Drive Allotment Project each time they visit Waitrose.
