Many thanks

SIR - I would like to say a huge thank you to the staff and customers of Tesco who, over the past 12 months, have raised a staggering �5.6 million for the Muscular Dystrophy Campaign as their Charity of the Year.

Over �410,000 of this money was raised in the South West, and every penny of this will be spent in the region to help local youngsters lead happier, more independent lives.

To everyone who has taken part, whether as a fundraiser, collector or a donator, thank you.

Sue Barker, MBE

President of the Muscular Dystrophy Campaign
