Wittersham School Association Donation

The Jempson Foundation are delighted to make a donation to the Wittersham School Association.

“This was a request from the children on the School Council who asked if a bird hide, binoculars and other learning resources could be purchased for the Wildlife Garden here at the School. Lockdown saw many children become interested in birdwatching and we use this space during lunchtimes and Wildlife Club. It is really good to have the support of Jempson’s, it means a lot to the children to know that the wider community are taking an interest in their wellbeing and development – they feel heard and valued” Claire, Headteacher

Donation made to Warming up The Homeless

The Jempson Foundation are very pleased to make a donation to Warming up the Homeless, a Charity based in Bexhill on Sea who support vulnerable men, women and children who are experiencing homelessness, food poverty and social isolation.

“This donation will go towards the Jubilee Party we are organising for up to 55 homeless children, who are currently living in emergency accommodation hostels. They will have had their whole life turned upside down so to give them some normality at this time will be so good. Thank you to Jempson’s for their contribution to help make this possible” Trudy, CEO Warming Up The Homeless
