A Fighting 4 Grantham Hospital campaigner received a surprise visit from Moy Park as part of the company's community 'Chicken Run' initiative .

Moy Park has been calling on the public to nominate someone they know who is deserving of a visit from the 'Chicken Run' van.

Mel Powles, who lives in Grantham, was chosen by her close friend Fighting 4 Grantham Hospital founder Jody Clark - who described her as a 'mental health warrior' and someone who was deserving of good fortune.

Mel said: "It was a lovely surprise to receive a visit from Moy Park and the gift of a food box - especially as I have a little mouth to feed as well!

"I feel blessed to receive this generous gesture and I'd like to say a huge thank you to Moy Park and Jody for nominating me, I'm really blown away."

Moira Mills, Moy Park's Senior Brand Marketing Manager, commented: "Chicken Run gives us the unique opportunity to say a huge thank you for the role people play in the community and to also bring a bit of joy to those who might just need cheering up.

"We are delighted to be able to recognise those like Mel who play a big or small part in someone's lives."
