Hudson Stonework Ltd have supported 2 charities, both Chamber of Commerce members, in one go by gifting a Courtyard Business Supporters Club membership to Yeleni Therapy and Support. The membership scheme entitles businesses and their employees to priority bookings, staff discounts and complimentary tickets to events at The Courtyard, as well as meeting room hire and conference space packages.
Beth Hudson, Community Liaison Coordinator at Yeleni, and of HSL, says, “My family has been going to The Courtyard regularly for 16 years. We love it. I thought that a gifted membership would be a great way to raise awareness of Yeleni, our clients and my family would be able to benefit from membership and importantly, as a valued centre for the arts at the heart of our community, The Courtyard is supported. I am thrilled that Olle has been able to make this happen. A friend has just started the ball rolling for another charity close to my heart. Other organisations will hopefully follow and ‘adopt a local charity’.”
Olle Grove, Fundraising Manager at The Courtyard, continues “Every industry has had a very tough year, including the Arts and charitable sectors, so to see another business supporting two charities in this way is heart-warming! We have a fantastic, supportive business community here in Herefordshire and we hope others will look to do something similar for other charitable organisations moving forward.”
