Coastal Recycling has partnered with InFocus Charity as their charity partner of the year. The partnership will see Coastal Recycling volunteering their time, giving compost for the gardens, donating money and planning fundraising activities throughout the year.
Nicole Bates, Marketing and Community Engagement Manager at Coastal Recycling said, “Coastal Recycling is committed to making a positive impact in the communities we live and work in. InFocus is just around the corner to our head office and recycling processing site, so it will be motivating to see firsthand the difference our contribution will be making to the young people at InFocus”.
The money raised from the partnership will go towards accessible garden furniture, buying picnic benches with spaces for wheelchairs so that friends can sit together outside and enjoy the gardens that InFocus sits on.
Claire Pilsbury, Head of Fundraising at InFocus Charity said, “We are truly grateful to Coastal Recycling for choosing us as their charity partner of the year. The support they are giving us is simply amazing and picnic benches will have a fantastic impact on the young people who will use them”.
