Tesco shopper selects Buckinghamshire school to receive a £5,000 donation

Carrington Infant School is celebrating after being selected by a Tesco customer to receive a £5,000 donation.

On Saturday 15th March, Tesco customers at Beaconsfield Express were given the chance to take part in a lucky dip to find a golden version of Tesco's famous blue voting token.

Carrington Infant School was one of three local charities that customers could vote for to receive the £5,000 Golden Grant as part of Tesco's Stronger Starts scheme.

Ashley Irving, committee member and trustee at Carrington Infant School, said: "We are beyond excited to begin our project to transform our playground for children with SEND into a sensory haven! We want our garden to help our children to regulate so that they can access the sensory curriculum on offer. We want the garden to stimulate all the children's senses. We are hoping to have a water feature, a tactile playhouse, a musical feature and somewhere for the children to climb."

Over one hundred Tesco stores across the country took part in the Golden Grants event, with £500,000 in total being donated to good causes that help children and young people.

Caroline Willis, Store Manager at Beaconsfield Express, said, "We were super excited to host Golden Grants for our community. This event really does benefit local charities and schools giving them the opportunity to thrive in an environment where additional help is often needed."
