Highbridge War Memorial Trust has been given a boost by Sanders Garden Centre in Brent Knoll this week.
The charity has been donated new gardening tools worth around £100 to replace the trust’s rusting, broken tools that have been used for decades to maintain the town’s memorial gardens.
Sharon Reid, volunteer secretary and trustee, and Mike McCleary, volunteer gardener and trustee, received the donation from Sanders’ Tony Gray on Thursday, as pictured here.
Sharon told Burnham-On-Sea.com: “We’re very grateful to Sanders for kindly donating this brand new gardening equipment, replacing our very old, rusty and unusable tools. It’s greatly appreciated!”
Future of Edinburgh Woollen Mill store in Brent Knoll saved after take-over
The future of the Edinburgh Woollen Mill store at Brent Knoll’s Sanders Garden Centre has been secured after new owners have taken it over.
The store is fully open again and has new stock in place following the take-over by Purepay Retail Limited.
A question mark had hung over the future of many Edinburgh Woollen Mill stores last year after the previous owners filed for administration.
The Edinburgh Woollen Mill Group had announced it was planning store closures, putting 21,000 jobs at risk across the UK.
A spokesperson at the Brent Knoll store told Burnham-On-Sea.com that staff are “relieved” by the news.
