Over recent months there have been countless reports of business having to close their doors as a result of the coronavirus pandemic. To help put an end to this trend, SPAR in Palm Grove have come up with a truly heart warming gesture that will not only put a smile on your face, but hopefully money back in the pockets of struggling businesses.
