We recently had the pleasure of spending some time at Victoria Park Café with Shelly Quintin-Hume, who has been doing an incredible job raising money for this much loved community space.
Victoria Park Cafe is far more than just somewhere to grab a brew. It is a welcoming hub within the park that supports local people, families, and community groups, providing a safe, friendly place to meet, volunteer, and connect. The café plays a vital role in keeping the wider community spirit alive in the park.
Shelly has taken on the challenge of fundraising to help support the café and its future, ensuring it can continue to serve the local area for years to come. At the time of writing, the JustGiving page is closing in on its target, with around £8,000 already raised, which is a fantastic achievement and a real reflection of how valued this place is.
As a business, we are proud to live and work in Stretford, and supporting causes like this is exactly what our Recycle & Reward programme is designed for. Through the programme, we recycle old windows and doors removed from customers’ homes and turn that into funding that can be reinvested back into our local community.
We are delighted to have donated £1,000 to Shelly’s fundraiser through Recycle & Reward, and we hope this contribution helps push the total even closer to the final target. Being able to support projects that make a genuine difference locally is something we care deeply about, and Victoria Park Café is a perfect example of a community asset worth backing.
A huge well done to Shelly and everyone who has donated so far. It is inspiring to see what can be achieved when a community comes together for a great cause.
If you would like to learn more about our Recycle & Reward programme, or know of a local project that could benefit from support, please get in touch. We are always on the lookout for ways to give something back to the area we are proud to call home.
