STAFF at Hereford's Asda supermarket are looking for deserving causes to receive a £500 donation.

The store wants to hear from county charities, organisations and projects who help out and support the local community.

The funding available features part of the "chosen by you, given by us" initiative.

Customers can nominate a cause by filling out a card which can be found on the store’s community board.

Alternatively, information can be provided by logging on to the store locator page at www.asda.com or simply by telling the Community Champion, June Thurston, in-store.

Once all the nominations have been received, a shortlist of three will be selected and customers will then be asked to vote for the one they feel is the most deserving.

Ms Thurston said: “I’m looking forward to hearing all about the great things going on in the local area, I’m sure there are lots of deserving causes.”

The donations have been funded by the Asda Foundation, which was set up in 1988 to support local good causes chosen by Asda colleagues, and is funded by profits from the mid–week national lottery.
