Over the past few months, I’ve seen first-hand the fantastic local community spirit that’s been helping Elmbridge to get through the Coronavirus challenge. Whether volunteering with local groups, or donating to local causes or charities, we can all play a part in helping our communities to bounce back.
Walton Charity is a great example of a local charity which has been doing inspiring work during the pandemic. They’ve already given out more than £25,000 of emergency funding to help families and charities in Elmbridge who have needed support.
To continue providing this support, Walton Charity have launched a COVID-19 Response Fund appeal, setting an ambitious target of raising £100,000. Every pound donated will be matched by Walton Charity. The money raised will provide support to local families who have been hardest hit by the crisis, and ensure that local organisations can keep providing essential services for children, young people and their families.
If you are able, I would encourage you to consider donating to this excellent local cause. You can do so here.
