Saffron Building Society’s Enviro Saver account is designed to raise money for local environmental charities. Each year, a new charity is chosen by members, customers and the public via an online poll.

Green Light Trust was delighted to be selected as the designated charity for 2024, receiving a generous donation of £5,816.

We were very pleased to welcome several staff members from Saffron Building Society to the Foundry for a cheque presentation. They were introduced to our Step by Step participants and learnt more about what we do.

We’d like to thank Saffron Building Society for the donation and for visiting us, Step by Step very much enjoyed the visit and taking part in the presentation and picture. The income will greatly help to transform lives by bringing people and nature together through our wellbeing and educational pathways.
