Our PPE Contribution During the Pandemic

“Donation puts wind in food bank’s sails”

All charities, of any size, are incredibly important to so many vulnerable families – reaching out a hand to our local communities and sometimes the greater national population. One such charity, is that of the “New Forest Basics Bank”, located in Lymington, to help those in need despite a ‘break in’ last December.

This incident, albeit despicable, brought awareness to us of the incredible volunteers who are giving up their time and money to support the most vulnerable in the New Forest catchment. As a company we were shocked that there was such a high need for this help and we were desperate to pass on our support to this cause.
