Thank you to Barratt and David Wilson Homes
We are delighted to have received a £1,000 donation from Barratt and David Wilson Homes to assist our work helping accommodate and offer emotional support to young people in Norfolk and Suffolk.
We provide accommodation to up to 180 vulnerable young people every night, equating to over 50,000 safe night’s sleep a year.
Rachel Hogg, Communications Manager at The Benjamin Foundation, said: “We were thrilled to hear about the donation from Barratt and David Wilson Homes. The generosity and kindness of individuals, groups and businesses does so much to support our vital work in Norfolk and Suffolk, making a difference to the lives of local young people and helping them receive the right support at the right time.
“With more and more young people needing our support, we are especially grateful to Barratt and David Wilson Homes for their donation to help the young people in Norfolk and Suffolk that we support.
“On behalf of The Benjamin Foundation, we would like to thank Barratt and David Wilson Homes for their amazing support. Thanks to this donation, we were able to do more to support vulnerable young people in Norfolk and Suffolk, helping them to finally feel hopeful of a better future.”
As well as supporting homelessness, The Benjamin Foundation also offers a number of other services including childcare, youth support, and emotional wellbeing support.
