Thank you Gripple!

A great big "thank you!" to the lovely folks at Gripple who have kindly provided us with a suite of 8 lockers. For many of our clients, having no secure space to keep their things is a big issue - many people without secure housing will carry their possessions around with them. These lockers will ensure they have a secure spot for their things whilst visiting the Day Centre, meaning they can relax without feeling like they have to keep an eye on their stuff.

Gripple have been a continuous support to Ben's Centre - from donating to fund a trip for clients to go to Cleethorpes for a fish & chips last year, providing desks and chairs for our office, and even being considerate enough to stop by again to drop off some padlocks & keys for our clients to use with their new lockers. We want to give a special shout out in particular to Garry and Natalie from Gripple who have gone out of their ways to support us. It’s consistent support from local businesses like this that show us the power of our community. Gripple have gone the extra mile to support Ben’s Centre time and again and we are very pleased to know they are looking out for us. What’s even more amazing is Ben’s Centre is just one of the Sheffield charities that Gripple supports - The Gripple Foundation supports multiple local charities, engages communities and volunteers, and raises funds for their charity of the year.
