Sport Relief is back and that means that colleagues and customers at Sainsbury’s Newport will be getting active and raising money for the charity again this year.
For 2018, Sport Relief is challenging the nation to come together to walk 1 billion steps a day, every day from 17th-23th March, counting their steps through the brand new Sport Relief App. Sainsbury’s will be leading the charge with colleagues stepping up as part of Team Sport Relief.
Over the next few weeks, Sainsbury’s colleagues all over the UK will be workin g hard to raise money for Sport Relief, which will conclude with a week packed full of in store activity from 17th-23rd March. Fundraising activities at the Newport store include Boogie Bounce, Crazy Golf and a sponsored walk, all of which will be taking place between 16th and 18th March to raise as much money as possible for Sport Relief. All challenges are helping to meet the 1 billion steps challenge.
Simon Church, Store Manager at Sainsbury’s Newport, said:
“Our colleagues love getting involved with Sport Relief fundraising and we’re all really proud to support such a great cause. There are some brilliant activities planned this year and we look forward to inviting customers to join in with the fun.”

This year, items include wristbands, pin badges, deeley boppers, water bottles and much more. Customers can also win great prizes by buying a £1 scratchcard in store –with all proceeds going to Sport Relief.
