DO YOU SHOP IN WAITROSE?
We are delighted to announce that the Harpenden Hopper has been chosen as one of Waitrose’s supported charities from 1st October to 31st December. After you’ve checked out at Waitrose - grab a handful of green tokens and drop them into the Harpenden Hopper charity section (in the store, on your way out). The more tokens received, the more money is raised. It all goes to a good cause - providing funds for replacing Harold Hopper minibus. Thank you.
