A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for our Scrap Metal Collection fundraiser in support of CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably).
Thanks to the generosity of local residents, we filled an entire skip with unwanted metal items, from bikes and lawnmowers to car parts, windows and much more, helping to raise over £200 for charity.
A special thank you to Cllr Leigh Jackson for organising this fantastic fundraising initiative, and to Cllrs Hailstone, Ireland, J. Jackson, Manro, Nukana and Roupelis for giving their time to support the event.
We’d also like to extend our sincere thanks to Steve Dragg, Steve Narbett, and Paul from EMR Swindon, who generously gave up his annual leave to help on the day, as well as the wider EMR team for their support.
The event was about more than fundraising. It was a wonderful opportunity to speak with residents, hear local concerns, and bring our community together. It was fantastic to see so many people supporting a great cause while helping to recycle valuable materials.
Thank you to everyone who donated, volunteered, promoted and supported the event. This was a brilliant example of what can be achieved when a community comes together to make a difference.
