Greenhous Group has presented a cheque for over £5,000 to local charity, Friends of Severndale, following a successful charity golf day attended by Greenhous customers at Hawkstone Park, Shrewsbury.
Friends of Severndale has been a registered charity since 2003 and provide funds for projects to support students at Severndale Specialist Academy, along with organising social events for Severndale families. Severndale’s vision is to ensure that the needs of all of their students are ‘truly met’, ensuring students leave the academy being as independent as they can be and are also ready to access ‘life beyond the school’.
Ashley Passant, Managing Director Car & Van Operations, Greenhous Group commented: “We chose to raise money for the local charity Friends of Severndale because of the additional support and extra-curricular activities they are able to provide for children and young people with additional needs at the specialist academy.”
The day included a charity raffle – with prizes including golf equipment, tickets to the Manchester Co-op Live Arena and Chester Races – and a hole-in-one competition to win a Porsche Cayman.
Passant concluded: “Thanks to everyone who came to make this such a successful day and raising money for such an important cause. All money raised will help to provide additional joy and support to children with special educational needs.”
Severndale Academy and Friends of Severndale were delighted to receive this generous donation from Greenhous, which will be used to support our students to have motivating educational experiences such as sensory spaces and cultural visits. We would like a to say a huge thank you to everyone involved in the golf day, from our whole acadmey and Trust community.
