Pets at Home in Bracknell has raised £50,000 for The Alzheimer's Society after the sale of pin badges.
Store manager, Steven Wooten, says: “The team and I in Bracknell would like to say a massive thank you to all of our customers for their support with the campaign and their generous donations towards Alzheimer’s Society.
