Sponsored: 'We've saved eight lives this year alone thanks to Tesco funding'

As Tesco celebrates 25 years in Ireland, they're launching a new series to highlight the incredible voluntary work that they've made possible through the Tesco Community Fund

Donations from the Tesco Community Fund have allowed groups like Waterford City River Rescue to purchase lifesaving equipment for their volunteers.

This year marks 25 years of Tesco in Ireland. Since the brand first established themselves here in 1997, they have become a go-to for Irish households in every corner of the country, with 153 stores spread nationwide.

In that time, Tesco has become many things for many people — it’s where we go to do the full weekly grocery shop, or to pick up the latest new fashions at F&F or the latest smartphones from Tesco Mobile, or others pop into Tesco Express for on-the-go essentials.
