Gala 2017 – Stonehouse Homes Supporting Local Causes Gregson Green

Gala 2017 – Stonehouse Homes Supporting Local Causes

We at Stonehouse Homes love to help local causes and have helped many over the years.

You can visit Gregson Green’s website here.

Recently, we received a lovely letter from Gregson Green – a place to provide a venue for local groups to meet such as Rainbows, Brownies, Mothers and Toddlers, The Women’s Institute, Dog Club and child welfare clinics. The venue is also used for private birthday parties and other events.

Here is the lovely letter we received from Gregson Green:

Dear Karen and Mark,

I am writing to express our sincere thanks for your contribution of a raffle prize and the placing of an advertisement in conjunction with our Gala Day on Sunday the 27th of August 2017.  Continued support for our events is greatly appreciated.

We were blessed with perfect weather, which was enjoyed even more after the rather miserable summer this year.

The fantastic total raised this year was £7,300, which is wonderful for such a small village and reflects the wonderful support of the local residents. This brings our vision for a new sports and recreation facility that much closer.

Once again, thank you for your continued support and commitment to one of our major fund-raising events of the year.

Yours Sincerely,
Jacqui Gibson
Chair
