The Sefton Group is to support the Salvation Army's Christmas Relief programme for the fourth year running.

It will supplement the charity's turkey supply, cooking the meat and donating potatoes for its Boxing Day lunch.

The food will then be served to around 70 users of the service at Salvation Army's temporary HQ on Tynwald Street in Douglas.

Sefton Group's senior general manager, Gareth Capper, says they're pleased to be linking up with them again and is praising the impact the charity has on people's lives.
