Since September 2020 we have additionally donated a
further £500 to Readifood, £300 to Christian Community Action, £300 to
Women’s Refuge and £500 to Launchpad. All these agencies do

Helping those who help others
During these unprecedented times with COVID-19 we are unfortunately not
getting the applications for help that we would normally receive but the
Trustees felt that we could instead help agencies that are working in
the community to help people who are struggling. To this end to date we
have donated £2000 to Readifood, £600 to Christian Community Action,
£600 to Women’s Refuge and £500 to Launchpad. All these agencies do
amazing work and we in turn feel that we are contributing and in a small
way still helping the community.
