Capita Staff complete Garden Challenge
At the end of the summer a team of staff volunteers from Capita, recruited through Zurich Insurance’s Staff Challenge programme, refurbished the garden at our Herrington Rooms day centre in St Paul’s, Cheltenham, even raising money for the plants and equipment.
A team of 5 staff, led by Piers Neveu, gave up their Saturday morning to dig, weed, tidy and replant borders and hanging baskets outside the centre with fantastic results!
This new garden will bring great pleasure to day centre users, many of whom no longer have a garden of their own. They were all involved in the planning and will help to keep the garden up together throughout the year. We are already looking forward to spring to see the planting come to fruition.
To end a great year of partnership with Zurich and Capita the centre received a surprise visit from Piers just before Christmas bringing a hamper of goodies to be shared out, with another donation to pay for some festive entertainment! These donations have since been match-funded by the Zurich Cares Trust.
Regular readers will know this is not the first time we have received help from the Zurich Challenge Scheme and we would like to say a huge thank you to all our friends at the company for their ongoing support.
