 Tesco Bags of Help Scheme - Fri 1st September to Tue 31st October

We are taking part in Tesco's local community grant scheme where the money raised from the 5p bag charge is being used to fund thousands of local projects in communities right across the UK.  Our goal from this will be a "facelift" for our sight loss support centre.  There will be tokens available to vote for the project of your choice every time you shop at Tesco Superstores in Prestwich & Bury and also Tesco Express in Brandlesholme & Tottington.  These tokens will be available for a short time so get voting!

FOREIGN COINS  

Thank you to everyone who responded to our appeal for unwanted foreign coins. So far this year we have raised £114.77. This is an ongoing campaign, so if you return from holiday and find the odd coin lurking in your pocket

Why not donate them to Bury Blind Society?   

We have found a way of turning unwanted coins into funds that help us to support local visually impaired people. If you would like to help and have some coins to donate, please drop them in to our Sight Loss Centre at 4 Tenterden Street, Bury or call us on 0161 763 7014 and we could arrange to collect them.
