Local business drives support forward

'g.m auto accessories' of Harleston, Norfolk (shhhh!) have supported a simple yet innovative idea in the foyer of their work premises.

When customers purchase spares for their motor vehicles, any loose change is encouraged into a simple vestibule on the counter for the benefit of Suffolk's wildlife. The funds are sent in annually and put in to our third party account. Here it is used to provide match funds for successful grant applications, effectively multiplying their donation by up to ten times its value! In the case of g.m.auto accessories this means that in the three years of support they have already helped to purchase one whole acre of land and create a new nature reserve for Suffolk's species. Thanks Julia and Tom.
