Visible presence: WFF supports local church group

The Wainwright Futures Foundation has donated 24 high-visibility vests to a church youth group in Stoke St Michael.

The “Sunday Stokers” has been set up by Lizzie Rice and Charlotte Corbett. It brings young children together once a month in the War Memorial Hall. During their sessions, the children learn about a Bible story or theme and complete an activity.

Afterwards, the group walks along to the Parish Church of St Michael and All Angels to join the last part of the regular congregation’s Family Service.

“It’s the walk in between the hall and the church that we asked the Wainwright Futures Foundation to help with,” explains Lizzie. “We needed high-vis vests for the children and helpers so they could be seen on their walk. The Futures Foundation kindly donated them, complete with a Wainwright logo on the back.
“We know that Wainwright is a generous business which is proud of having deep roots in the local community,” she continues. “We are so grateful for its support. The vests look absolutely fantastic.”
