I would like to thank you so much for my heating allowance. I am 93 and live on my own. I suffer from pain and feel the cold so much. I live on my pension and have to be so careful. Thanks again I do appreciate it. Mrs E
I am an 86 year old widow with mobility issues and various health conditions exacerbated by the cold weather. Thanks to your grant I can continue to stay warm this winter. Mrs M
The grant enabled 17 children to enjoy a Christmas party with their non-resident parent in a friendly, supported environment. It is hoped that the party will allow the parent and child to build and maintain their relationship to the benefit of the child’s development. Stevenage Child Contact Centre
A really big thank you for your incredibly generous gift. After a very difficult year I’ve been on a slow but steady road back up. The laminate flooring means I can very easily use my wheelchair to move around. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. I won’t forget your kindness. Miss H
