Local Business Supports Struggling Young People

Local business Warwick Events have generously donated £1300 to Bardsley Youth Project, which will provide meals for Coventry’s homeless and vulnerably housed young people.

The donation comes in at a critical time when many young people across Coventry are making the difficult decisions on what essentials to keep as they struggle with the continued rise in the cost of living. These essentials can be the difference between keeping on the heating, electricity or eating meals.

Rachel Orman, Communication and Fundraising Worker for Bardsley Youth Project, commented:

“Donations like these go a long way in supporting the young people of Coventry. Malnutrition affects physical and mental well-being, leading to poor decision-making and performance issues at work or school. This one donation alone supports almost half the projected need at our Warm Space, a place for local young people to connect and be supported this winter. I couldn’t be prouder to be part of this brilliant project.”

Vienna Jeavons, Events Co-Ordinator at Warwick Events said

“We’re proud to support the amazing work that Bardsley Youth Project does. Our donation will provide 260 meals this winter, helping to make a difference to those in need during the colder months.”

Bardsley Youth Project recently launched Its winter fundraising campaign ‘Nourish, Connect, Support’. The campaign aims to raise £3,000 providing 600 meals at £5 a meal to young people attending the charity's Warm Space for support this winter. Businesses and individuals alike are encouraged to give if they can.

For every £5 donated, one nutritious prepared meal can be provided to our city’s young people who desperately need it this winter.
