Save your Tesco Bags of Help tokens to help Hadlow Down

The Parish Council has been successful in their project to improve the play area being accepted for the Tesco Bags of Help Grant Scheme during March and April 2019.  They will be competing against 2 other local projects.

The 3 local Tesco branches taking part in the scheme are the Tesco Expresses in Browns Lane, Uckfield and Station Road, Heathfield and the Tesco superstore in Uckfield.

March and April may seem ages away however you can start collecting your vouchers now and if the cashier doesn’t give you any please ask for them.
