THROUGHOUT March customers at a popular shop and Post Office have been helping to raise money for a charity which provides help and support at the end of a person's life. 

Last month staff at Enham Shop and Post Office, in Enham Alamein, along with customers raised money and awareness for Marie Curie.

Subpostmaster Leslie Francis and her team sold locally-made yellow cupcakes and huge amounts of daffodils, including knitted ones.

They also wore ‘silly faces’ to support the organisation and people offered kind donations.

In total the shop raised £1,451.25 for Marie Curie which will help provide expert hospice care, support over the phone and assist with campaigning to push for better end of life care for all.

Leslie said: “I would like to say a big thank you to our customers and staff who brilliantly supported Marie Curie during March.”
