The Community Foundation

You might like to know that 5% of your order is being donated to help with the current Coronavirus crisis.

We are starting to have people we know and love affected by Coronavirus. We feel helpless and overwhelmed. We are also aware that many of the Charities working with the most vulnerable in our communities are losing vital sources of income.

It's so difficult to know how to help, so we have decided to start with our own local community. The Community Foundation has set up the Coronavirus Response and Recovery Fund. This fund is to help give quick support to local charities and community organisations across Tyne & Wear and Northumberland, who are working with older people and vulnerable groups affected by the current crisis.

Response is about getting extra money to these organisations.

Recovery is about funding a wider group of local charities and community organisations whose operations and finances have been affected so they can recover and continue their activities once the outbreak eases.

Please note that we have not increased prices to make the donation, but each order helps so thank you so much for your support too!

You can read more about the work the Community Foundation is doing here. If you live in the Northumberland and Tyne & Wear area and would like to help support directly you can do so through the Community Foundation Just Giving Page.

Thank you and please stay safely at home if you can.
