Special day includes deliveries, phone calls, and thank you cards

The Foundation’s team took some time on Wednesday to acknowledge those who have provided their support for the charity in recent years.

The first ever ‘Thanking Day’ was a chance to show gratitude to many of those who have donated, taken on a fundraising challenge, formed a corporate partnership, or volunteered their time in some way.

Some had cake and brownie deliveries from the team, while staff, trustees and volunteers back at The Nest spent the day making phone calls and writing thank you cards to be posted.

Thanking Day was kindly supported by Computer Service Centre, who themselves have supported the Foundation for several years with continued sponsorship of Run Norwich.

Also on the day, BBC Radio Norfolk’s Chris Goreham and Rob Butler paid a visit and recorded some live sections of their Norwich City podcast, The Scrimmage.

Emma Fletcher, the Foundation’s Senior Fundraising and Events Manager said:

“We rely on a lot of support from people to help us complete our work, and we never take that for granted; this has been a day just to stop and say thank you to as many people as possible.

“The support, in whatever form it comes, helps us to achieve our charitable objectives including driving inclusion for people with disabilities.”
