A group of scouts and cubs spent a day at Tesco — and came away with more than £700!

The 26 children from Whitchurch Beavers, Cubs and Scouts spent all day Saturday packing bags for customers at the Tesco Callington store.

The event is part of the scout group's campaign to raise enough money to pay for a trailer to carry their camping equipment on trips.

Scouts fundraiser Lisa France said: 'We were made extremely welcome by all the Tesco staff and managed to raise the grand total of £757.09. The cubs, scouts and explorers all enjoyed themselves, while raising funds towards the trailer we are hoping to purchases ready for next summer. It was an enjoyable and successful day for all and we are very grateful to Tesco for giving us the opportunity.'
