In November, the Shefford Morrisons Community Champion asked local people to nominate a person or local businesses who they felt deserved a gift at Christmas from the supermarket. The campaign was run on Facebook and Anne was nominated by many people shouting her praise.
Anne received her gift on Tuesday 8th December at the store in Shefford, presented to her by Shefford Morrisons Community Champion, Elliot Anderson, who said:
“Anne has done some absolutely remarkable things this year - the pop-up shop at the beginning of the pandemic which not only helped out my family, but plenty of other families during that critical period. She’s managed to turn the reputation of the pub around into a space that’s hassle free and welcome to all! Not only that, but Anne is still doing wonderful work for our local elderly community and putting plenty of smiles on hungry peoples’ faces.”
Anne added the following, “Thank you to
everyone who nominated me. Words cannot express how happy and shocked I was when Morrisons contacted me. I have fantastic people around me who believed in me and stuck by me through hard and stressful times, I am grateful to you all. Staff, family, friends and customers let’s hope 2021 is a better year for us all.”
