Angela from our Charlton store is backing England to go all the way in the football this summer .... but she'll be rooting for her nephew Antoine Semenyo when he takes to the pitch tonight for Ghana against Harry Kane and co.
Angela said: "We are all so proud of Antoine, he's a brilliant footballer. We all support him and have always encouraged him. He could have played for England, but Ghana called on him first! I think Ghana will win tonight – 1-0, hopefully with Antoine scoring. Although I hope Ghana win tonight I do think England will go on and win the tournament. But, you know, it's just a game, it's a bit of fun and we are having a lot of fun in store with the football."
Asda Charlton's community champion Karlee said: "It's always fun in store when we have a football tournament on the go. Everyone is allowed to wear their chosen country's football tops. We have such a variety of colleagues from different nationalities supporting their teams. It's great to see everyone back their home teams and wear their tops with pride, but I'll be shouting 'Come on England!'"

Happy Father's Day to dads everywhere – including Ranu, Dave, George, Kevin and Chris who all work alongside their sons and daughters at our Rawtenstall store.
Ranu, who works with his son Sam, said: "It’s really good working alongside Sam. Customers know that we are related and we look alike, except that I've got a grey beard! It's so nice when customers say how kind and helpful he is, as that make me feel proud." Andy, who first worked for Asda in 1979, works with his son George, who's working part time while studying. He said: "A lot of the colleagues and customers know we are related and some of the colleagues here even remember him being born!"
Chris and his son Ethan both work on produce. Chris said: “Working with Ethan for the last seven years has been one of the best parts of my Asda career. We have made some nice memories and friends together and had lots of laughs along the way." Home shopping driver Dave works with his daughter Keira. He said: "I always pop up to see her before I go home on a Sunday. This Father’s Day will be no different, we will both be working but it will be lovely to see her through the day so I don’t have to wait until we've both finished." And security colleague Kevin works with his daughter Katie, who said: "It's very comforting as I know my dad's there whenever I need him, and to lighten up my day with his jokes!"
We hope they all have a wonderful day.

When Carrie from our Pudsey store spotted an elderly customer getting upset and looking confused at the checkouts she immediately stepped in to help.
The lady, who's in her 80s, couldn't find her purse, couldn’t remember who she had come with, where she lived, and had no ID or phone with her. Carrie decided to pay for her shopping while trying to work out how best to help her. After talking to her for a while and trying in vain to find out her address, Carrie was about to raise the alarm when the lady's son came rushing in – he'd been frantically searching for her in nearby shops. He was extremely grateful and reimbursed Carrie for the shopping.
Carrie said: "I just wanted to help her as I just care about everybody. She was a lovely lady, bless her, very happy and smiley." Store manager Gary said: "This is a fantastic example of putting our customers first and living our values every day. The lady's son was deeply appreciative of the care and support Carrie had shown. She's a real credit to the team."

Fadelah, from the local NHS sexual health services, reached out and asked if there was any way I could help support all their nurses and assistants celebrate International Nurses Day – of course there was.
They requested breakfast items and fresh fruit, and I got that together for her colleague Amanda to collect. I received some of the nicest emails from Fadelah and was told everyone was happy with the food.

Faruk from ICSS Foodbank was grateful when I reached out to them with a donation. Faruk is one of many volunteers who look after the Foodbank, helping low income and socially disadvantaged families who struggle to afford everyday essentials such as cooking oil, sugar and many other items.

I was approached by Five Elms Primary School to see if I could help with a donation of Cadburys Crème eggs.
They are running a school Easter competition and the prizes will be the eggs, so of course I was more than happy to help. I hope they all have an egg-stra special time.

The last few weeks I have been fundraising for our breast cancer charity campaign tTickled Pink.
I started with my first ever hamper raffle. I made up three Mother’s Day hampers full of items any mum would love. Well done to Michelle from home shopping and Barb from front end for winning two of the hampers, I’m still waiting for the winner of the third one to collect theirs. The second week I had my table set up with all the new items sent in for Tickled Pink and must say the bag charms seem to be everyone’s favourite. I also made some flowers up for the table to help raise money. Thank you to everyone who supported me.

We reached out to one of Helping Hopes, our local foodbanks ,to see if they needed any help with supplies urgently needed.
Asim was grateful we reached out and took us up on what they are in great demand for currently. He said that these items will be used to help vulnerable individuals and families in our local community.

I had the pleasure of meeting up with Barking and Dagenham SFA girls U11’s team.
Even though it was a cold and wet day they played their hearts out. They were all extremely grateful for the donation of hydration drinks and healthy snacks after their game. It was a pleasure to see happy faces even though they were all cold. Good luck girls for your next match.

The lovely Claire from Mayespark Primary School's PTA collected a donation to help the school support vulnerable families in the community. They also support families with food so children can have a hearty full dinner, and weather appropriate clothes amongst much more.
I was able to reach out to the school to help with an Asda Foundation Young Futures grant, so fingers crossed they're successful.

Carl from The Boathouse popped by to collection a donation I got together for their “honesty library” that is open to all the local people with a lovely section just for the little ones.
Everyone can come use the warm space to read books there or take them home, but they also get to meet new people, have a chat or get some advice whilst having a lovely cup of tea.
