THE West Somerset Food Cupboard was given an early Easter boost this week with a donation of over 100 Easter eggs.

The gift was down to the generosity of Tesco customers, and was the brainchild of Tesco Minehead’s Community Champion, Kirsty Allen.

Kirsty said: “We set ourselves a target of collecting 50 Easter eggs in ten days, but were overwhelmed when our wonderful customers donated a total of 102 eggs!”

This is just the start of a range of Easter activities at the Minehead store, including ‘Chase the Chick’, ‘Brand the Bunny’ and a schools’ colouring competition.
