Customers can pick up a bauble worth £1, £2 or £5 to donate to a local food bank, Waste not Want not.

Six mornings a week come rain or shine, Katherine and Daniel and a team of volunteers can be found on the forecourt of the Untied Reformed Church on Hardwick Square.

Last year the giving tree in Morrisons helped raise over £1,000 which helped to make up 157 Christmas hampers and keep the foodbank going with other stock needed to help feed the community.
