Local independent finance firm, Nurture Financial Planning based at Yare House in Norwich, are the latest company to sign up to the nook business network supporting East Anglia’s Children’s Hospices (EACH) vision for a new purpose-built children’s hospice in the heart of Norfolk.
This new corporate scheme devised by the charity encourages companies small, medium and large to commit to raising either £10,000, £15,000 or £25,000 over the duration of the appeal in return for a numberof benefits and support the charity will provide.
The company, who place great emphasis on their social responsibility, have supported a number of different local and national charities over the years raising thousands of pounds, were quick to offer their support for the nook, not only looking to raise £15,000 over the appeal term but also to work at promoting the appeal to customers and clients alike.
Simon Linstead, Managing Director of Nurture Finanacial Planning, said: “As a company we take our corporate responsibility very seriously and after seeing press coverage of the proposed new hospice and finding out more about the nook appeal we were delighted to support by signing up to the business network. EACH is a local charity helping local families at a time when they need it most and as a local company we feel both proud and fortunate that we can play our part.”
Gary Cook, the nook appeal corporate fundraiser, said: “We have had a really positive start to 2015 in terms of local company support via the nook business network scheme and it is fantastic that Simon and his team at Nurture have agreed to support us also.
“With a £10 million appeal target, the financial element of the fundraising is hugely important but it is also imperative that as many people as possible know of our vision of a new children’s hospice in Norfolk giving them the opportunity to join us and help us achieve our goal. Therefore the awareness that Nurture will provide along with their financial contribution is absolutely fantastic and I am really looking forward to working with them throughout the appeal and beyond.”
