Bellway makes donation to Sebastian's Action Trust

Hampshire-based Sebastian’s Action Trust, which supports families with seriously ill children, received the items from Bellway’s Longfield Place showhome in Sherfield on Loddon.

The donated accessories and an armchair have since been used to decorate a child’s bedroom in one of the apartments at The Bluebells, near North Waltham.

Jo Sumnall, head of fundraising and engagement at the trust, said: "This donation from Bellway is so welcome.

"We don’t receive any Government funding, and have to fundraise to make our work possible, so we are very grateful for this donation.

"We want to make a stay at our centre as special as it can be and offer our families something fantastic and it’s lovely to create something for the children that’s fun."

The apartments each accommodate eight people, and the centre includes gardens, a hydrotherapy pool, sensory play area and a craft area.

Jon Rance, sales manager at Bellway Wessex, said: "Sebastian’s Action Trust provides immense support that makes an incredible difference in so many ways to the families they help.

"We were very happy to give them to this hugely worthwhile charity."
