Asda St. Matthews Superstore

Over the past few months, colleagues from Asda St Matthews in Walsall have been working with the Dementia Society and other related bodies to make our store dementia friendly. We are delighted to announce that we are the first supermarket in the UK to be accredited as being dementia friendly and we will be awarded an official kite mark on Thursday to recognise this status.

Selling Champion Sophie Dyke wears her Tigger outfit with matching George Tiger handbag to boost the sales of St Matthews tiger bread. The costume, along with the mobile mic, made sure that Sophie pushed the sales of tiger bread and also thoroughly entertained our customers.

Asda St Matthews counters colleague Nathan Hack proudly sets up his fish bins and pushes the sales throughout the day.

Asda St Matthews unveiled a medieval cross mounted on the wall as a symbol to mark the wooden market cross that used to stand near the store. Under the cross is a plaque dedicated to the Bayards Colts, Walking the Fair and The Market Charter of 1225 - all part of the heritage of Walsall. In the picture is community life champion Martin Bateman, Cllr and Mrs Anson, Mayor and Mayoress of Walsall and Tony Kemshall of Walsall Civic Society.

On Tuesday 14th May community life champion Martin Bateman was invited to an awards night held by Walsall Civic Society. During the awards, Martin was presented with a "Bayards Oscar" for his work with the council and the Civic Society on the revival of traditional and heritage projects. The award was presented by Cllr Dennis Anson, Mayor of Walsall.
