Community Matters Donation for the Alex McGhie Fund
The Alex McGhie Fund received £117.72 from our Community Matters Scheme. The charity fundraises money to help make a difference in the lives of children with special needs and their families.
We support a variety of local initiatives every month
Set up in 2004 as the Charity Committee, the renamed Community Engagement Team has donated over £250,000 to various local charities, sporting groups and events. These have taken the form of monetary donations, prizes, purchases of equipment and sponsorships.
The Community Engagement Team has a dedicated Facebook page to showcase our support of these initiatives and we encourage members of the community to approach us if they believe we can be of assistance. You can use the form to the right, a paper copy available from our retail outlets and the Falklands 4×4 showroom, or email us on community.engagement@fic.co.fk
