A WOKINGHAM-based garden centre has announced that its charity of the year will be JAC (Just Around the Corner).
Staff from Squires in Heathlands Road made the decision and will organise a number of fundraising events over the next 12 months.
The charity provides equine-assisted learning and development programmes for children with challenges such as ADHD, anger, self-esteem, trauma and depression. It also runs a charity shop in Wokingham town centre.
Sarah Squire, chairman of Squires’ Garden Centres, said: “We believe it is so important to work with and be part of the local communities in which we are located.
“In support of this, every year each of our garden centres choose to support a local charity which means something to the centre team.
“Over the course of the coming year, our centres will help raise awareness of their chosen charity and importantly, help raise much-needed funds for them.
“We are extremely grateful to our customers and colleagues for their support and generosity in helping these brilliant local causes and even more so during challenging times.”
