CHARITY DONATIONS

 

Owen Durrett, Vice Chairman, Parity for Disability accepted a cheque for £500 from Carnival funds.  He explained that Parity were an organisation providing stimulation for young adults with multiple disabilities, mainly over the age of 18.  Parity provide two day centres – Camberley and Farnborough and this money will go towards the transportation costs of their four vehicles.

Ruth Hutton from Friends of Fairways which is part of Seeability (Royal School for the Blind) accept a cheque for £500.  Fairways is a small residential home in Elvetham Road where 7 adults who are visually impaired are able to live.  They are just trying to raise funds to build a rehabilitation centre which our donation will go towards.

Gill Chapman and Carole Payne from Hearing Dogs for Deaf People collected a cheque for £500.  Gill commented that the dogs are life-changing for the people who have them.  There are three in the local area and it costs £5k to train one – so the money will be very useful in this regard.

Deb Baker from Calthorpe Park School Association collected a cheque for £1,000 which she confirmed would be going towards their fundraising drive to build an all weather cricket pitch/training ground for their champion school team.
