Sytner Group dealership donates Easter treats to local children’s charity

13 April 2022

Local dealership, Sytner Group Derby Audi, has made a donation of Easter eggs to Children First Derby to ensure that those in need are able to enjoy the Easter season. ​​​

The dealership donated 100 Easter eggs to the charity that relieves distress and suffering experienced by families and children in the local community.

Lesley Page, Accounts Assistant at Derby Audi, said: “Derby Audi wanted to donate the Easter eggs to a local children’s charity for children who, due to their circumstances, wouldn’t receive one this year.

“Children First Derby was nominated to us by the Derby Women’s Centre (Domestic Violence Support Centre) in Derby who we have recently donated items to.”

Children First Derby currently offer three distinct services, supervised contact services for looked after children, family support services and mentoring services.

Louise Webb, Fundraising Officer at Children First Derby, said: “I’d like to thank Derby Audi for their efforts, hard work and generosity for donating 100 Easter eggs to us this year.

“With special thanks to Lesley for organising the collection, we really do appreciate everyone’s support. Our team is now busy distributing the eggs to all of our supported children and young people, making sure they receive their chocolate treats just in time for Easter.”

Lesley continued: “Colleagues at Derby Audi are thrilled that children in the local community will be receiving an Easter egg this year and were more than willing to help me deliver them to the centre.”

Children First Derby make a huge impact in children’s lives and can evidence this in outcomes such as; school attendance, self-esteem, confidence and reduced social isolation.

Service-users report improvements in over 85% of the agreed outcome targets identified in their individual support plans.

At Sytner Group it is important to not only develop talent and build careers for colleagues but also support the communities in which we work so that they’re able to thrive and grow as they should.
