Dear Sarah
I would like to start in saying, a huge thank you to you and Abbeymead Building Ltd for your recent kind donation of building materials to aid with our projects. I would like to give you a brief outline, on who we are and what we do. I work for children services, as part of the Youth Justice Specialist Team. And I alongside Dennis support young people who have been convicted at Court of a crime and have been sentenced to a Community Order. Our role is Supervising these Young people in the community as payback for the harm they have caused.
Most of our projects in the community will be localised to where the young person lives, hence given back to there community, and will come with qualifications(city guilds) which give more substance, and a goal for the young person, as well as a form of punishment, it will enable all our young people who especially are not in education to gain qualifications to put on a C.V. We have a workshop where we teach woodwork and carpentry skills and health and safety at work, all are finished items, some of which I have attached pictures, are sold, and all proceeds are donated to the Salvation Army crisis fund, which we donate to every year. Your donation will go towards building hedgehog houses for the local national trust. We also in the summer months carry out gardening projects for local Housing Trust for adults with disabilities and tend to overgrown gardens, which the young people get to use a variety of petrol driven mowers, trimmers which also comes with Qualifications on completion of Order. We also work with the Animal Welfare Trusts at their centres on various projects.
So this is just a brief outline of what we do a lot more goes on behind the scenes as you can imagine the young people we support often have complex and underlining needs, and in today climate any help that we can receive with kind donations from company’s such as yourself are so gratefully received.
And again from myself and all the young people, I would like to thank you and Abbey Building for your kind support and wish you all a very merry Christmas and happy new year.
Kindest Regards
