SHOPPERS have chosen a nature reserve for a £200 grant.

Bobbit’s Hole Nature Reserve, off Main Road, Dovercourt has been handed the donation as part of Asda’s Chosen by You, Given by Us scheme, where shoppers give green tokens to show their preference to a shortlist of good causes.

Colin Farnell, chairman of the Harwich Society, which runs the reserve, said: “We should thank Asda and all the customers for their support.

“This money will be put towards purchasing a children’s bench made from recycled plastic materials, which will be for the use of visiting school parties and youth groups.”
