Hornchurch and Upminster Sea Cadets have been helping shoppers in order to raise money for their organisation.
The group was selected to be Sainsbury’s Hornchurch Charity of the Year for 2012-13.
It means the youngsters are able to come into the high street supermarket store once a month and help bag pack in exchange for donations.
The store will present the cadets with a cheque in the coming months.
