Community Links

We are continually evolving to meet the different needs and demands of customers in their local community. At the same time, we always strive to put something back into these communities. We have supported Barnados, Whizz-kidz and Age Concern through a series of fundraising activities ranging from cycling the equivalent one and a half times round the world on exercise bikes to climbing Britain's tallest mountain.

Kids First, our independent registered charity, has raised over £4.6 million since 1999 for local causes and national charities including Childline, Children in Need and Scope.

Our environmental policy ensures that we meet tough targets governing waste recycling and energy conservation. We monitor our suppliers to minimise their impact on the environment and ask them to sign up to a code of conduct governing employment practices and factory conditions.

We aim to be at the heart of the local community. We are as serious about our social and environmental policies as we are about delivering an enjoyable shopping experience to all our customers and superb career development opportunities to our staff.
