A HIGH STREET shop has chosen a nursery as its charity for the year.
The Original Factory Shop in Kingsway Dovercourt has announced Harwich Connexions Noah's Nursery as its charity partner for 2010.
Noah’s Nursery was chosen following an appeal to the community to nominate local causes.
Now staff at the store are preparing for a year long programme of fundraising activities to raise a minimum of £500.
Kim Cook, store manager, said: “We had a great deal of interest in the campaign from local causes looking for a helping hand and it was a very difficult decision to make.
“We have chosen Harwich Connexions Noah's Nursery as we feel that we can really help over the next 12 months.
“Staff are very excited about the scheme and cannot wait to get stuck into the fundraising initiatives we have planned.”
