A Chesterfield superstore has teamed up with a local charity to help Derbyshire residents struggling with the cost of living crisis.

The Chesterfield branch of Lidl has teamed up with Matlock-based River Network to support the charity’s food and toy bank, which even delivers help to local homes direct

“We are a bit like a Uber Eats for the marginalised, we’ve also just opened another local foodstore and distribution service,” says Terry Eckersley, the charity’s CEO.
