Child’s family raise over £10,000 for The Movement Centre

Tuesday, November 1st, 2011

The family of a child who attends The Movement Centre for Targeted Training therapy has generously donated £10,005. Bob Robins, grandfather of Eden Robins (aged 4) raised the funds through his Redditch based company Reddispares Ltd.

Employees at Reddispares Ltd spent a year organising and taking part in events to raise the whooping £10,005. Bob explained that the generosity of some people was overwhelming and that everybody wanted to help raise money for such a worthwhile cause.

The fundraising came about because Eden’s family were so impressed with the work of The Movement Centre and the progress that Eden had made that they wanted to give something back to say thank you.

Only half of the children who come to The Movement Centre are NHS funded so this money will be of tremendous help and it will mean that children who may not have had any funding can now have the opportunity that Eden has had.

Fundraising through the families of children is so important and will become ever more so in the future. It doesn’t have to be a huge sum, a donation of any size is a big help and is always gratefully received. The Movement Centre depends of the generosity of people like the Robins family and the employees of Reddispares Ltd.
