Shoppers back counselling service

A counselling service has been chosen by shoppers at Sainsbury’s as the supermarket’s charity partner for the next year.

Ashford Counselling Service (ACS) will receive 12 months of fundraising and awareness support from the firm’s Bybrook store in Simone Weil Avenue, Ashford.

This is the fifth year that the store has run the Local Charity Partnership Scheme, in which customers are able to vote for their favourite charity to be considered.

Tracy Dighton from ACS said: “We know the success that the scheme has bought to many charities in Ashford, so when we received the recent phone call to tell us the news, we were delighted.”
