Sainsbury's Active Kids vouchers

Hi, my CM has asked for Sainsbury's Active Kids vouchers and I assumed she would be using them to buy equipment for herself / her mindees. So, I asked friends and family and have quite a bundle of vouchers to give her. But I'm not sure if she's collecting for local school (with which I have no connections). Sounds awful, but I'd probably donate them to the school my DS is due to go to if this is the case.

I just wondered if any other CMs have heard of being eligible to benefit from this scheme?

Thanks

i am a childminder and have tried and tried to join the this scheme, but keep getting told that i can't register with them as i am not a scool!
I would be very interested to know if she has managed to register with them!

Very unfair i think as the tesco scheme welcomes childminders to join!

Might be worth you asking her what she intends to do with the voucher before you hand them over, if you would prefer to give them to a different school.
