After a wonderful year for both organisations during which the staff of the Building Society volunteered their time to help at the Foundation’s two houses and raised over £4,500 in many different ways; we held the final cheque presentation in the Yurt in the Foundation’s Yew Trail outdoor classroom and creative space. Many many thanks to everyone at the Building Society for their commitment and support.
