SCOUTS and Girl Guides in West Somerset worked together over the Christmas period to raise funds towards the refurbishment of their headquarters in Alcombe.
Members of the 1st Exmoor Scout Group and 1st Alcombe Guides took part in a trolley push at the Tesco supermarket in Minehead.
The youngsters accepted donations for helping customers back to their cars with their shopping and then returning the trolleys to the store's trolley park.
A total of £774.95 was raised for the ongoing refurbishment work at the Alcombe hut, which is shared by the Scouts and Guides.
Assistant Scout Leader and treasurer of The Hut Fund Committee, Andrew Coward, said: "We would like to thank everyone for their generous donations and all the staff at Tesco for their help."
