A LOWER Walton based chemical firm has donated £10,000 to help organisations hit by the pandemic.
Ingevity has backed five causes with £2,000 each.
Site manager Paul Shelley said: “We’re honored to be in a position to support the community at such a crucial time.
“The Covid-19 pandemic is placing financial strains on many residents in our community. We hope our contributions ease some of those burdens."
The money will go to:
- Callands Community Primary School – The donation will assist the school with a full restart as they have been particularly challenged by Covid-19.
• Woolston Hall – All residents in this senior living centre were given 2021 wall calendars and diaries, puzzle books, pens and Christmas food items. 33 hampers were packed and delivered to each unit.
• Walton Lea Partnership – The donation will provide supported learning, development and work activities for adults and young people with learning disabilities.
• St. Rocco’s Hospice – The donation will help provide free care for people with life-limiting illnesses.
• Warrington Food Bank – The donation will provide food to people, from all walks of life, who experience food insecurities.
Ingevity employs more than 90 employees in Warrington.
