The six successful group, who will all receive £300 each, are 107 Endeavour FM, Boston Women’s Aid, Restore Church , Boston Community Transport, Centrepoint Outreach, and Age UK Lincoln & South Lincolnshire.

The store has judged the six groups to have all made a positive impact by reducing isolation, reducing poverty, delivering essential items to vulnerable people, or being a community lifeline.
Stephen Bromby, community champion at the Asda store, said: “The Asda Foundation is committed to supporting small grass roots charities and community groups and will be awarding the £300 Christmas gifts to these six local groups as part of our Christmas activity to celebrate and thank groups for their commitment to our community this year.”
