The money donated to NICU will be used to buy equipment for the unit.

Scott Jell, store manager, said: “We asked our customers on the store’s Facebook page where they wanted to make a donation to and the most popular choice was the hospital’s Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.

“We are glad that the money has gone back into the local community and will really help to make a difference.”
