We are forever grateful to the fantastic staff and customers of the Northampton branch of the Coventry Building Society for their ongoing support.
Community Champion, Amy Armstrong recently applied for a grant to go towards a wheelchair roundabout at The Squirrels short break centre in Rushden.
We were thrilled to learn that the bid had been successful and we have now received the £1,000 cheque for The Squirrels.
The support from Amy and colleagues at our local branch never ceases.
The staff have volunteered at the short break centres a number of times over the years.
Most recently, Amy attended John Greenwood Shipman Centre with Karen to help make Easter nests and cakes for the children.
They also kindly collected Easter eggs from their customers and ran an Easter raffle to raise funds.
We returned to the branch recently to spend some time with staff and talk to customers about the charity.
We’d like to take this opportunity to send a very special thank you to everyone at Northampton branch for continuing to support us.
Since 2016, we have received £5,185 in aid of the children’s short break centres.
