We had so many plans to work with Wates during our new build but COVID stopped them. They have continued to support us and after a collection from the site team they delivered goodies for the children and a substantial cash donation (over £230)to us today. Thank you! @WatesGroup

Great response to our food bank collection held at our @WatesGroup Gibside SEN project this week. 8 bags of food and essentials delivered to @GFoodbank this morning. Hopefully this will help somebody in need at this particularly difficult time. Well done to all who contributed.
