‘A Better Tomorrow’

Advancing Lidl Ireland’s community-focused objectives under its ‘A Better Tomorrow’ corporate social responsibility programme, and to mark the opening, the staff members of the Knocknacarra store have chosen to donate €1,000 in Lidl vouchers to Galway Autism Partnership.

Galway Autism Partnership is a community-based charity providing services and support to autistic people and their families living in Galway City and County.
