Funny faces were pulled and pennies thrown in buckets as a supermarket raised money for Red Nose Day.

Sainsbury’s in Stanmore raised almost £3,000 in a fundraising day to raise money for Comic Relief.

Shoppers were treated to henna tattoos, hand and shoulder massages and Dominos pizza, while staff members took part in a raffle.

Store manager Tom Bolland said: “Our colleagues love getting involved with Red Nose Day fundraising. We had some brilliant activities planned this year which were a great success.

“We managed to raise a fantastic sum of £2,971.25 and I would like to thank the local community for supporting us.”
