THE Morrisons Foundation has donated £28,000 to the Primrose Hospice, a charity which cares for people with serious illnesses and their families.
The donation will be used to run a support programme for children and young people who have recently lost a loved one.
The cheque was presented on behalf of the Foundation by Gareth Worton from the Morrisons store in Bromsgrove, who said: “We were delighted to present this cheque to a charity which provides such important support in our local community.”
Emma Williams from the Primrose Hospice said: “This grant is an amazing boost to our Family Support Services which will enable us to help children and young people who have lost a loved one.”
The Morrisons Foundation was set up by Morrisons supermarkets in 2015 and awards grants for charity projects which help to improve people’s lives. Since launching over £20 million has been donated to hundreds of charities across England, Scotland and Wales.
