We are now appearing in store until the end of July! We have been busy popping in quite a few blue tokens and you can do too at:

Tesco Superstore - Thorpe Road, Melton

Every time you shop, you will receive a blue Tesco token, and we would be incredibly grateful if you could pop it into our voting box to support funding towards our new outdoor classroom. This space will allow our children to learn, explore and connect with nature in a meaningful and inspiring way.

How you can help:

Cast you vote as soon as you receive your blue token in store
Only Tesco blue tokens can be used to vote
Encourage friends, family and the local community to get involved
