LETTER: Samaritans to the rescue

I returned to my car in Sainsbury's car park on Monday, October 9, to find that it would not start due to a flat battery.

A young couple nearby realised my futile attempts and came to offer help. He had the necessary jump leads in his car and drove it alongside to enable the necessary connection, and within minutes he made me roadworthy again.

I thank them again for their kindness. It saved me a lot of time and stress.
