WOW - THANKS

We have raised a total of £17,296.42, 115% of our target rising to £20,096.12 with gift Aid for our charity event organised by Enable Independent Financial Life Planners London to Paris Bike ride in aid of Grove Cottage.  What a brilliant way to celebrate Enable’s 15th Birthday, thank you so much to all who took part and all of your who donated to such a great cause. The three day 300 mile adventure organised by Enable could not have gone better and all funds raised will go to Grove Cottage, the home of Bishop's Stortford Mencap.

Grove Cottage is a great local resource could not run without funds but it also relies enormously on the passion, enthusiasm and support of local volunteers. If you are not up for cycling to Paris you might be interested in continuing to give to Grove Cottage as a volunteer.

If you volunteer at Grove Cottage - you make a real difference to real people in your local community and can have some great fun at the same time.  Grove Cottage have some volunteers who have been with them for over 30 years!  At Grove Cottage they understand that volunteering needs to work for both parties so encourage people to come along and try out the roles. The kind of jobs that volunteers are asked to do  involve mini bus driving, chaperones for mini bus pick-ups and drop-off for adult clubs,  and some more general support - all their clubs need (and love to have) volunteers.
