We’ve launched a new £5,000 community fund for Hartford to help charities and community groups impacted by Covid.
We have previously shared more than £20,000 amongst good causes in and around Hartford via a series of voluntary community funds.
Recognising that charities and community groups have been under extra pressure and often unable to carry out their usual fundraising activities this year, we’re offering a new community fund.
Area sales manager for the North West Caroline Thompson-Jones explained: “Over recent years we’ve hosted a Happy Hartford Christmas event for the local community, helping to raise thousands of pounds for charities. Because of Covid this hasn’t been possible this year and we’ve thought about how else we can celebrate the community spirit of the area. The result is a fresh round of funding for good causes.
“Community has become more important than ever before in recent months and there have been lots of heart-warming stories about people coming together to support one another. We’re also aware of the extra pressures charities and community groups have faced this year because of Covid.
“We know from previous funds there are lots of projects locally for people of all ages – from Men in Sheds supporting mental health, to sports teams keeping residents fit and active, to schools and youth groups helping young people. We very much want to hear from good causes in the Hartford area, near to our Weaver Park and Water’s Reach developments, to find out how we can help them make a difference locally.”
Our previous Hartford funds have helped provide volunteer training, craft sessions, sports kits, a table saw, tables, construction toys and a defibrillator amongst others.
The latest Hartford Community Fund is linked to new homes being built at Weaver Park and Water’s Reach and is in addition to our statutory investment in the neighbourhood.
Homes at Weaver Park are currently available off plan, with prices from £287,995. Sales for homes at Water’s Reach are expected to launch over the coming weeks.
Hartford Grange is now a thriving community, with the final homes on phase 3 of the popular development now on sale.
