The pandemic inevitably impacted our usual fundraising activities in our hearing centres and, of course, many charitable events were cancelled. However, we continue to collect in our clinics for the Mary Hare School for deaf children and young people, and Dorset & Somerset Air Ambulance – please just ask us if you would like to make a donation when you next visit. In addition, we have supported the following events and good causes on your behalf during 2021:
• THE RNLI
• ROYAL BRITISH LEGION
• SHERBORNE VOLUNTARY AMBULANCE
• HEARING DOGS FOR DEAF PEOPLE
• OPERA IN OBORNE
• SHERBORNE TOWN FOOTBALL CLUB
We’re also pleased to share the news that the RNLI and Sherborne Voluntary Ambulance are beneficiaries of our charity Christmas card this year.
LOOKING FORWARD TO 2022…
We’re supporting a new defibrillator for Sherborne
We’re delighted to share the news that Girlings has pledged £500 to help provide a second life-saving community defibrillator for Sherborne, working with the Community Heartbeat Trust, Sherborne Town Council and Sherborne Chamber of Trade. Fordingbridge already has four defibrillator locations, whereas Sherborne only has one; so we’re pleased to support this effort for a second defibrillator to be provided for the town by the spring of 2022.
