Over £2,100 was raised by local residents shopping at Co-op and naming us as their favourite charity! Even better, we are going to be supported for another year!
You can still choose us as your local cause via membership.coop.co.uk/causes/96587
You can use the link coopapp.onelink.me/ftOk/0mpmt7q4 to download the co-op app which would give a cool £5 to us.
Capital International, our most generous sponsor, recently planted another 440 trees with us. We are immensily grateful for their longterm contribution to our island's natural environment!
