The Screwfix Foundation supports Huddersfield’s Shabang inclusive learning charity

Shabang! Inclusive Learning, based in Huddersfield, is celebrating after being awarded £4,910.00 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.

Kim Reuter, Project Delivery manager from Shabang! comments: “We are very grateful to The Screwfix Foundation for donating these much-needed funds to support our charity. The funding will be used to make Shabang’s premises fully accessible to wheel chair users

We’d like to thank everyone who was involved in the fundraising – it’s been a great help to us.”

Julie Ambler, Store Manager of the Screwfix store in Huddersfield, comments: “We’re really pleased that one of our local charities has been awarded funding by The Screwfix Foundation. Staff from across the business have held a variety of fundraising events to raise vital funds for The Screwfix Foundation, so it’s fantastic to see the money we have raised being invested back into such a worthwhile community project.”

The Screwfix Foundation, which celebrates its fifth birthday this year, 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 two national charity partners, Barnardo’s children’s charity and Macmillan Cancer Support, as well as supporting smaller, local registered charities like Shabang! Inclusive Learning.

Relevant projects from across Huddersfield are invited to apply online for a share of the funding at screwfixfoundation.com.
