Majestic has announced that Mencap, the learning disability charity, is its charity of the year. Staff at Majestic Wine Warehouses are being encouraged to come up with fundraising ideas, and for each good idea Majestic will make a donation to the charity. Additionally, money will be raised through collection tins on the counters as well as donations at charity wine tasting events (the first: Italian wines, 17-19 May) and store openings. The money raised will go towards Mencap's community support teams, who give guidance and help people with a learning disability to access facilities and resources.
