Asda

Community champion Geoff is one of the many Asda colleagues across the country who are proud to support the Poppy Appeal.

He's welcomed volunteers from the Royal British Legion to our Mount Pleasant store in Hull and is joining store manager Jacqueline to lay a wreath from Asda at the nearby Sutton village War Memorial. Geoff has strong family connections to the armed forces – his late dad Stephen served in the RAF, his grandad Arthur was part of a defensive rear-guard while service personnel were evacuated from Dunkirk, and his great-grandfather Thomas received two Distinguished Conduct Medals in the First World War, as well as serving in World War Two.

Geoff said: "I have these stories from my family about the suffering and the sacrifices that these men went through and what they did. Sadly there are fewer and fewer of those men who fought in the last war, so it's important that they are not forgotten, and that the younger generation keeps the tradition alive. The Poppy Appeal is not just about remembrance though but also about the funds to support our veterans whichever conflict or war they've been in. We need to help them in whatever way we can whether it's for physical injuries or mental injuries."

Asda colleagues from stores across the West of Scotland took a dip in the sea to kickstart their fundraising efforts for BBC Children in Need.

The 30-strong group from stores across the region from Kilmarnock and Irvine to Dumbarton, and Falkirk braved the icy waters, with each store challenged to raise at least £1,000 for this year's campaign.

Teresa, community champion at our Kilmarnock store, said: “We had an incredible day for it. The sun was shining in the sky as we dipped into the water at Irvine Beach, and the Isle of Arran looked spectacular in the distance. It was a big team effort, and everyone had a ball - despite the chilly water. The icing on the cake was to have our very own Pudsey there.

Since 2000, Asda has raised more than £42 million for BBC Children in Need – supporting over 400,000 children and young people across the UK. This year the charity is embarking on a new mission: Championing the Mental Health of young people.

The total amount raised this year will be revealed live on air during the BBC Children in Need telethon on Friday November 13th.

After 40 years working at Asda Benton, our lovely Elaine is finally retiring!

She is going to be massively missed by everyone, and we wish her all the very best as she starts an exciting new chapter.

I would say put your feet up, relax and enjoy a well-deserved rest, but I have a feeling her lovely grandbabies will keep her super busy.

Enjoy every minute of your retirement, Elaine. You deserve it.

Together, we can help raise awareness and encourage early detection. 🩷- Lisa, Asda community champion

A huge well done to the lovely lads from Wallsend Boys Club who visited us at the weekend to do a bucket collection, raising funds for winter coats and equipment! 👏⚽️

The boys were an absolute credit to their club — so polite, well-mannered and a pleasure to have in. They raised an amazing £397! 🥳🙌

Thank you all so much for your kindness and support. Keep up the fantastic work, lads!

Well done Nick! Wonderful to see so many great comments about you on Facebook. 💚

Home shopping driver Nick from our Benton store used the medical knowledge he gained during 36 years in the RAF to care for an elderly man who he spotted had collapsed in the street in the recent heatwave.

Nick was on his rounds in the Forest Hall area of Newcastle on one of the hottest days of the year when he saw the gentleman stumble and bang his head while using a walking frame. Nick safely pulled his van over, rushed to help him, and called 999. He did a quick assessment to check he hadn't broken any bones before moving him to the shade and getting him to sit up.

Nick, who joined Asda two years ago after retiring as a warrant officer, said: "I used water from the van to dowse him on his front and back and made sure he drank some too. The heat that was coming from his central core was not normal. I wrote on the bottles what time I dowsed him, and marked how much water he'd taken in too. We do this on the battlefield and in deserts. Due to the heat he was in and out of consciousness, but I kept talking to him and reassuring him. He was wearing a Newcastle United top and I mentioned I was from Manchester and that I supported Manchester City and we joked about football."

Nick phoned the store to arrange for a second driver to come and take over his deliveries while he stayed with the gentleman until the ambulance arrived and took him to hospital. Nick, who's been nominated for an Asda service superstar award, said: "Helping him was just the right thing to do. I like to go above and beyond for our customers. I get a lot out of my job and I love helping my community."

What a fantastic day at the Brenkley Avenue Street Party!

It was brilliant helping Shiremoor Adventure Playground and North Tyneside Active with their amazing smoothie bike. I was delighted to donate fruit alongside Mavis from Asda South Shields and Ashleigh from Asda Byker to help keep everyone fuelled with healthy, delicious smoothies.

The day was a huge success, and it was wonderful to see so many children having fun making their own fruit smoothies by pedalling the bike. Seeing their smiles and excitement made it all worthwhile!

A big thank you to everyone who came along and helped make the event such a memorable day. It’s always a pleasure to support our local community and encourage healthy, active fun!
