Colleagues from both Wain Estates and Wain Group had the privilege of helping out at the Warrington Youth Zone as the centre prepared for Christmas.
The Centre is a haven for local youngsters providing all manner of activities from a rock-climbing wall to a recording studio as well as support for the local community. Our teams were kept busy over two days wrapping gifts donated by the public for a Santa’s Grotto and putting together food hampers which were then distributed.
Throughout both days, the teams were moved by the continuous outpouring of donations from the local community and businesses and impressed by the facilities and support on offer.
Sarah Brennan, Supporter Engagement Lead at Warrington Youth Zone, said: "I would like to thank the Wain teams for giving us their time to volunteer. Warrington Youth Zone supports lots of families providing gifts, food hampers and a meal to make sure all our families have a wonderful Christmas. We really couldn’t do all this without support, so from everyone here at Warrington Youth Zone we would like to say a huge thank you and we hope you enjoyed your time with us."
Wain Group executive assistant Rachael Davies, said: “It was a real privilege to be able to help this wonderful centre and to learn more about the services and support it offers to young people and their families. It is an amazing resource for Warrington and all our volunteers felt inspired by their time volunteering.”
Our Helping Hands initiative will continue throughout 2024, with every Wain colleague encouraged to volunteer to help projects in the communities in which we work.
