Children's hospices association is Somerfield Charity of the Year
The Association of Children’s Hospices (ACH), the umbrella body for children’s hospices in the UK, is to be the official Charity of the Year for food retailer Somerfield in 2005-6.
Together ACH and Somerfield aim to raise more than £1 million for 36 children’s hospices across the UK. Last year, Somerfield raised over £1.5 million for its charity, Muscular Dystrophy.
The selection process for Somerfield Charity of the Year ended in a staff vote which involved employees of both Somerfield and Kwik Save.
