Young Hayden Santer 'showed the true spirit of Christmas' by spending pocket money on donations for Blyth Foodbank

Young Hayden Santer "showed the true spirit of Christmas" when he asked his dad if he could use his pocket money to buy donations for his local foodbank.

The seven-year-old wished that he could help everyone "have a nice dinner this Christmas". And after seeing the foodbank donation trolleys in his local Asda, he was determined to make a difference.

So, with the help of Blyth Asda's community champion, Diane Dinning, and his dad Matt, who also works at the store, Hayden was handed his own trolley and Scan and Go handset and assisted round the store picking up things that the food bank were short of.
