Tesco is pleased to be supporting Cancer Research UK and Channel 4 as the two join forces to launch Stand Up To Cancer in the UK.
The Stand Up To Cancer campaign originated in the US and has since raised an incredible £100m for cancer research. The highlight of the UK campaign was a night of live television on Channel 4 on Friday 19 October and Tesco stores across the country supported the day by holding fund-raising activities in store.
Tesco’s Beverley store joined in by holding a hula hoop marathon. Staff member Rachael Hiscott led the way by hula hooping for an incredible five hours with shoppers and staff encouraged to challenge her.
A fantastic £237 was raised with all money going to Cancer Research UK, Tesco’s charity of the year
Dave Ryley, Tesco Beverley’s Community Champion said that he would like to thank customers for their generous donations and all those who joined in with the hula hoop challenge.
