Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to a carrier (90) for packaging a plurality of flanged articles (B), a blank (10) for forming the carrier. The carrier comprises a top panel (18), a bottom panel (12/14) and first (16) and second (20) side panels. The bottom panel is hingedly connected to a first side panel along a first fold line (15) and extends toward the second side panel. A retention feature (H2) is disposed in at least at the second side panel for engaging an article. The bottom panel comprises a proximal panel portion (14) hingedly connected to a distal panel portion (12) along a second fold line (13). The second fold line extends parallel to and is spaced from the first fold line. The bottom panel comprises a retention assisting tab (40) for engaging an article. The retention assisting tab is formed from at least the proximal panel portion and is hingedly connected to the distal panel portion.
