Pupils at a school in Bognor Regis will benefit from an £880 donation from a Nisa Local store to fund new sports kits.

The money will fund updated football, rugby and cricket shirts for students at The Regis School who compete in local, county and national competitions, and will be worn by boys and girls from Year Seven through to sixth form.

The donation was made through Co-op Wholesale’s Making a Difference Locally (MADL) charity, which raises funds via the sale of Co-op own-brand products in Co-op Wholesale partner stores. Each time a customer purchases one of these products, a percentage is added to the store’s MADL fund.

Kate Carroll, social value lead at Co-op Wholesale, added: “Thanks to the generosity of Ragin and his customers, this donation will ensure hundreds of students have the opportunity to take part in sport feeling proud and confident to represent their school.”
