Kasabian's Tom Meighan Makes Surprise Donation To Charity Shop

October 29, 2010
Kasabian's Tom Meighan Makes Surprise Donation To Charity ShopKasabian frontman Tom Meighan has made a surprise donation to a charity shop in Leicester.

The singer dropped off several bags of clothes, many of which had been worn on stage, at a local Oxfam store last weekend.

The bags included an £800 Vivienne Westwood jacket and signed t-shirts, reports The Sun.

"Tom is a local man so the staff recognised him. He was really friendly and said he didn't want any fuss,” store manager Ahsan Sheikh said.

"Somebody waited outside for a couple of hours before the clothes first went on sale. He spent £130 on a jacket, trousers and T-shirt.”

The clothes, which are also available on the Oxfam website, are expected to raise up to £3,000 for the charity.
