Store donating floral bouquets to home

A Street supermarket will no longer sell cut flowers which arereaching the end of their shelf-life.

Instead of selling them to customers at a discounted price,Sainsbury's in Street will donate the bouquets to Southlawnsresidential care home in Street.

The store has recently introduced this policy to help the localcommunity and also reduce the amount of wastage produced by thecompany as a whole.

Ray Dawson, store manager said: "This is a great scheme.

"Not only does it bring some sunshine in to people's lives byproviding them with a bright bunch of flowers but it also reduceswastage.

"I am really glad we are able to support Southlawns residentialcare home and hope that we can continue to work with them in thefuture."
