Southampton Tesco employees helped raise more than £63,000 for mental health charity Mind.

United with colleagues across South England, they walked 12 miles of the Jurassic Coast, with the funds raised from the journey smashing their original £25,000 target.

Funds were contributed by colleagues, customers, family and friends.

The stroll started from Lulworth Cove and ended at The Ship Inn in Weymouth.

Ian Thirlwell, area manager at Tesco, said: "I am absolutely thrilled with the support for this campaign and how our colleagues have come together to support such an important cause.

"We all know the importance of providing mental health support and nobody should go without the support that they need. This is an issue that close to my heart and why we were so keen to support the charity Mind.

"At Tesco we work hard to ensure colleagues have the support in physical and mental health that they need.

"We’re thrilled this that has been such a smashing success, and we look forward to going further and raising even more again next year."
