A PRE-SCHOOL has received a large grant.
Riding Mill Outdoor Pre-School, an exciting and stimulating outdoor learning environment for children aged between two and five, has benefitted from Benefact Group's sixth year of its £1million giveaway to charities through its Movement for Good Awards.
The school received the grant after members of the public were invited to nominate causes close to their hearts and it was named as one of them.
Mark Hews, Group Chief Executive at Benefact Group, said: “We would like to thank every single person who took the time to nominate a good cause as part of our Movement for Good Awards. Benefact Group is a family of award-winning specialist financial services companies and the third largest corporate donor to charity in the UK.
"Owned by a charity ourselves, charitable giving is at the heart of what we do. All of our available profits go to good causes and the more the Group grows, the more the Group can give.
“We are delighted to be able to donate over £1million to good causes each year through our Movement for Good Awards and are grateful to all our supporters, including the customers of the trusted insurer, Ecclesiastical, and the responsible and sustainable asset manager, EdenTree. We know that £1,000 can make a huge difference to the incredible work that charities do and we’re looking forward to seeing how this financial boost will change lives for the better.”
