The donation was raised by the country store’s customers, who took up an invitation earlier last month (September) to join a group morning dog walk organised by staff and to enter their pets in a family dog show later that same day.

The store in Mitton Road began supporting Rosemere Cancer Foundation 15 years ago when its founders John and Dorothy Townson were still in charge.

Their son and current managing director Jonathan Townson and his staff have continued that support by hosting an annual pet themed family fun day. Over this time and with this year’s donation, they have gifted almost £6,000 to the charity.
