Amazing Community Fundraising News!

🎉 Amazing Community Fundraising News! 🚙💚

We’re thrilled to finally share some incredible news from our friends at Suffolk Landrovers Owners Club (SLROC)!

Over the course of the past year, SLROC raised an outstanding £5,500 for us through their brilliant 4x4 off-road experience events.

At the same time, they also raised £5,500 for Felixstowe’s Independent Lifeboat – what an achievement!

SLROC is a welcoming group for anyone in Suffolk who owns a Land Rover. They regularly meet up to “play” off-road at their site near Woodbridge, all while giving back to the local community.

They’re a truly fantastic group of people who generously support small, Suffolk-based charities, each year, and we’re so grateful for their support 💙

Thank you SLROC – you make a real difference!

Sudbury Tesco Stronger Starts

We are delighted to announce that we're in the customer vote for a Tesco Stronger Starts.

It’s a scheme which gives community projects like us grants of up to £1,500.

From mid January, Tesco customers will now vote in the Sudbury store (CO10 1GY) between mid January to March 2026 to decide how much funding we get.

Here are the details of the project you have the opportunity to help support:

Sensory Garden Play Equipment at our Community Care Farm in Lindsey - Red Rose Community Farm

Building a 'Creative Corner' in our sensory garden, offering opportunities for children with SEND to experience music and art through guided outdoor play.

To vote, you will need to make a purchase of any value within store. You will receive one token per transaction. It is not necessary to purchase a carrier bag to receive a token.

So please support us next time you shop at Sudbury Tesco!!!
