South Carshalton Seniors Centre Gets A Helping Hand From The Screwfix Foundation

South Carshalton Seniors Centre Charity, based in Carshalton is celebrating after being awarded £5,000 worth of funding from The Screwfix Foundation, a charity which supports projects to fix, repair, maintain and improve properties and facilities for those in need.

Alan Sharp, Trustee from South Carshalton Seniors Centre comments: “We are very grateful to The Screwfix Foundation for donating these much-needed funds to support our charity, which provides a Day Centre for the Elderly in the London Borough of Sutton. The funding will be used towards replacing windows at the Centre, thereby improving our ability to keep the Centre warm, especially in winter, as well as increasing efficiencies in heat retention and contributing to a Greener outcome. We’d like to thank everyone who was involved in the fundraising – it’s been a great help to us.”

Steve Dunston, Screwfix Foundation Trustee said: “Supporting charities such as South Carshalton Seniors Centre with much-needed funding to help fix, repair, maintain and improve their facilities is vital. It’s great to see this donation go toward such an important project that benefits those in need.”

The Screwfix Foundation, which launched in April 2013 donates much needed funding to help a variety of local projects throughout the UK, from repairing buildings and improving community facilities, to improving the homes of people living with sickness or disability.

It also works closely with Macmillan Cancer Support, as well as supporting smaller, local registered charities like South Carshalton Seniors Centre.
