Local Timber Company donates new bench to Old Fire Station

Worksop-based timber company GG broadhead Timber LTD recently crafted and donated a new bench to our Old Fire Station day service.
With the weather showing no signs of slowing down, the people we support at day service have been spending more time outside.
When a staff member mentioned this to GG Broadhead Timber LTD, a family run business specialising in new timber and sheet materials, they chose to create a brand new bench for the service to use.
When ready, the bench was donated to the Old Fire Station at no cost, to allow service users to enjoy at their leisure.
Generous acts of support like these are so vital to keep the good work of our organisation running and to help us to deliver the absolute best possible service provision possible.
It really makes all the difference.
