SAINSBURY'S stores in Trafford are celebrating after raising £4,529 for Comic Relief.

Staff took part in a number of fundraising events during the week leading up to Red Nose Day and activities included the Store Manager at Sale bathing in beans.

Customers joined in the fun with customers joining in the fun and staff enjoyed cake sale and custard pie challenges.

Dave Howarth, storemanager from Sale, said:

“Our colleagues always go the extra mile for Red Nose Day, and this year was no exception. I’d like to thank all of our customers who donated or took part in the activities we held in store. It was a record year for Sainsbury’s and it’s brilliant to know we contributed to the impressive figure donated from Sainsbury’s to Comic Relief.”

Red Nose Day took place on March 13.
