The annual Christmas donation drive at Winn Group proved to be a big success, with St Martin’s Partnership benefiting.

The local community charity, based on Roman Avenue, works to support families in one of the most deprived areas in Newcastle, helping with the very basics that we take for granted.

The teams across our three offices have been incredibly generous, donating a range of clothes, foodstuffs, and toiletries to help families who have very little.

With Christmas a particularly tough time for those struggling to make ends meet, this donation has been warmly received by the partnership.

Suzanne Wellington, Chief Executive of St Martin’s Centre Partnership, said: “Thank you so much for all the donations, we really appreciate the support.

“We have received an extra 70 referrals to supply local people with a Christmas hamper, on top of our usual food parcels, so this donation is extremely welcomed!”

Winn Group’s CSR strategy continues to provide support, both financial and physical, to a range of charitable causes locally and nationally.
