The store also donated 200 cups for the cream teas and Vicki Mills from Waitrose made a personal donation of a Queen’s birthday cake as first prize in the fancy dress competition for primary school children.
The mayor said: ‘Thanks to Waitrose for their wonderful green token scheme whereby shoppers can decide which local charity is supported by Waitrose every month. I regret I am too old to enter the fancy dress competition because the cake looks exceedingly scrummy!’
