The colleagues were asked to nominate a local charity they think truly deserves some VIP treatment for the work they do for the local community and chose the team from Mind and Sole to take centre stage and officially unveil the new B&M store.

Mind and Sole is a multi-award winning charity that provides support for people in Alnwick and surrounding towns and villages.
