Councillor Margaret Pinder, Mayor of Beverley, will be lighting up Tesco Beverley’s Light Up a Life Christmas tree on Saturday December 22.
Throughout December, Tesco customers have been making a £1 donation to Cancer Research UK (Tesco’s Charity of the Year) and hanging a bauble on the tree to make a wish in memory to a loved one.
At midday this Saturday, the Mayor will be lighting up their wishes and Tesco would like to welcome all families to the Morton Lane store to remember their loved ones.
Dave Ryley, the store’s community champion, said: “We would like to thank everyone for your support and kind donations. Merry Christmas from everyone at your Beverley store.”
Cancer Research UK is Tesco’s Charity of the Year 2012 and together we hope to raise £10million to fund 32 early diagnosis and detection research projects across the UK. This will help more people survive cancer and keep more families together.
