Wyre Forest Talking Newspapers - Doing good together

A little bit more about Wyre Forest Talking Newspapers…

This free service, run entirely by volunteers, is available to anyone who has difficulty reading or holding a newspaper.

The group recently received a £500 grant, which was used to help purchase new boom boxes. Each boom box is costly, but every listener has one. If a boom box needs repairing, it is replaced free of charge, along with new memory sticks, as the sticks quickly become ‘sticky’ with continual use.

The charity also produces a magazine recording three times a year, featuring articles from various local and national magazines, as well as a special seasonal edition at Christmas.

A fantastic example of Doing good together. Remember, all colleagues can apply to the fund - so if you know of a group that needs a bit of help, find out more and apply here.
