The Paralympic Torch is visiting Sainsbury's Badger Farm on Wednesday
A WINCHESTER supermarket is welcoming the Paralympic Torch this week.
Sainsbury’s Badger Farm customers can see the torch on Wednesday, October 17, from 12.30pm-2.30pm.
Store manager Richard Morris said: “We’ve really enjoyed playing our part in raising awareness of the London 2012 Paralympic Games in Badger Farm. For our customers, it’s a once in a lifetime chance for them to see the torch and feel the buzz of the Paralympic Games, which we’re proud to have sponsored.”
The supermarket chain was the first-ever sole sponsor of the Paralympics and the torch will visit 400 stores across the country, finishing its tour on November 1.
