John Lewis shoppers in Exeter can hand a huge boost to a cause helping hundreds of suicide bereaved families across Devon.
Pete’s Dragons has been selected as a beneficiary of the Sidwell Street department store’s Community Matters scheme.
The initiative sees a trio of charities nominated to benefit from an overall fund of £3,000 every three months. Customers vote for their preferred cause by placing a green token into boxes located around the store.
Funding is then handed out proportionately based on how many votes each charity has received.
