Some of our volunteers enjoying the afternoon in the park, along with Sian Penlington of the Sing Alive Choir presenting their cheque to John Saunders. Once again, a big thank you to the choir for their support this year.
Devizes Opendoors have recently been awarded a grant by the Zurich Community Trust of £2,500. Zurich are passionate about supporting those vulnerable within our communities and with their volunteering and grant programmes.
Thanks to the Wiltshire Community Foundation for their support of a grant of £5,000 a year for the next three years. The Foundation is an independent charity that gives grants and funding to the voluntary sector and charities across Wiltshire.
A new target for individual monthly giving from our wider friends and supporters.
Opendoors' trustee Rachael Ross explains about how having this regular income month in month out will help us plan ahead on a firmer foundation.
