As a business, we at Barenbrug wanted to partner with a charity that operated in either the sport, education or environmental field, was local to our offices in Bury St Edmunds, and allowed for our staff to get ‘hands-on’ using their annual volunteer day. We were also keen to foster a true, long term ‘partnership’ rather than a year-long acquaintance with a charity - Green Light Trust understood and reflected that perfectly!
The Green Light Trust is a charity local to me, and I was drawn to them as they are helping individuals of all ages from the community, who are disadvantaged or facing challenging lives, through getting them outdoors and learning new skills in the nature, away from the modern fast-paced world.
