In the true spirit of Christmas, the generosity of local financial advice company Maher Brownsword means we can, once again, assemble and distribute Christmas Hampers to our clients.
An independent and personal financial advice company, Maher Brownsword was set up in 1994 and is based in Stratford. Dealing with varying levels of wealth amongst their clients, they also have a good understanding of the difficult financial challenges increasing numbers of people can, and do, face on a daily basis. The small, friendly team find that clients are always very happy to support and donate to their fundraising efforts.
Maher Brownsword have not only offered to sponsor our hampers but have also covered the costs of all the packaging, meaning that we can focus all our much-needed funding on the most needed areas of our work. They came to our aid at the beginning of lockdown in March with some fundraising and have continued their fantastic support again now, at the end of a turbulent year for everyone.
Andy Maher, Director of Maher Brownsword is someone who believes in the importance of remembering those who have helped him in his own success, said, “We are acutely aware of the Foodbank’s struggles with resources at this difficult time and have been moved by the tireless efforts of your whole team to try to help the community- because let’s face it, you never know when you may need a helping hand these days!”
We are extremely grateful to Maher Brownsword for their munificence. Our Christmas Hampers are an important facet of our work, and this year is no exception. Without the wonderful support of Andy and his team, it could have been a very different story this year.
