“A brand-new kit for matches and training is a wonderful way to unite the team and simply wouldn’t be possible without Persimmon Homes’ support.”
In addition, Dementia Connective was also awarded £1,000 to support its monthly Peer Support Group in Doncaster to help improve carers wellbeing through social and emotional support.
As part of the Community Champions scheme, each month Persimmon Homes South Yorkshire selects two good causes to each receive up to £1,000.
