Donation from Waitrose

Friends of Havant Cemeteries have received a cheque for £355 from Waitrose Havant as part of their Community Matters scheme.  The funds will be spent on tools and on more seeds and plants to enhance the New Lane and Warblington cemeteries for the enjoyment of the community.

Each month every Waitrose branch donates £1,000 to be shared between three local good causes nominated by Waitrose customers.  At the checkout each customer receives a green token and votes for a cause by placing it in one of three boxes.  The amounts donated are determined by the number of votes cast for each cause.
