Jo Hughes, Marketing Executive for Age UK BRWF, said: “We would like to say a huge thank you to the Benefact Group and members of the public that nominated us for this £1,000 Movement for Good Award.
“As a local, self-funding charity, we rely upon the support of the community to help us raise funds.
“Our services have never been in such demand, which is why this award is so very much appreciated.”
