Jan Jennings, on behalf of the Richardson Brothers Foundation, explained: “The Haven does the most incredible work helping women and their children when they need it most. They provide safe, emergency accommodation in a compassionate environment. The Richardson Brothers Foundation is pleased to be able to give a donation that will go towards new bedding, kitchen equipment, toiletries and toys and anything else that’s needed to make a house a home.”
Stephanie Boswell from the Haven, added: “We offer a range of services and activities to support women and children, including a 24/7 helpline, counselling and therapy, as well as safe accommodation for those that need it. It’s really important when women and children are moving into a different home they also have the essential items that will makes their lives more comfortable. This funding from the Richardson Brothers Foundation will make a real difference to some of our most vulnerable clients and we are very grateful.”
