Cash boost for Stockport charity

Stockport Cerebral Palsy Society has received a financial boost following a donation from the Lymm and District Round Table.

We donated £750 to the society which supports over 500 children and adults in Stockport, Manchester, Trafford, Tameside, Derbyshire and Cheshire, who have a range of physical and/or learning disabilities and autistic spectrum conditions.

The money will initially go into general society funds, to ultimately be used to pay for equipment and activities for service users.

Adrian Rigby-Bates, the society’s fundraiser, said: “Everybody at Stockport Cerebral Palsy Society would like to thank the Lymm and District Round Table for their generous recent donation. This money will be invaluable to our society and will have a positive impact on the quality of life for disabled children and adults.”

Chairman of the Lymm and District Round Table, which organises a number of fundraising events throughout the year, Chris Stephens, said: “Although we are based in Lymm we are keen to support charities and community groups across the region and we felt that Stockport Cerebral Palsy Society is particularly worthy. We hope our donation goes some way to assisting its future development.”
